Ignata has launched Ignata Actuarial & Investments, a division focused on serving the UK and Europe’s leading consultancies, insurers, pension funds and asset managers.
By offering more than just a traditional transactional business model, Ignata will work in partnership to deliver not only talented professionals but industry insight, market mapping, events and employer brand research as well as ‘on demand’ solutions. The business will supply both permanent and contract services globally and Ignata’s new division aims to change the way recruiters operate with clients in the sector.
The new business is being headed up by Peter Knowles and James Craven, who will both serve as directors. Ignata Actuarial & Investments is also backed by James Caan’s private equity house Hamilton Bradshaw.
Caan commented, “We are delighted to have James and Peter as part of the executive management team in Ignata. Both bring exceptional experience within the actuarial & investment industry, an outstanding track record and exceptional quality of service to customers they have serviced for years.
“They will become true assets to the business and we are confident they will be able to continue their excellent work. The actuarial & investment space has been a key part of our strategy and we are delighted that 2019 has seen this vision crystallised.”
