Gen II Fund Services has appointed Matt Le Noury as head of European operations as the global service provider continues to expand its proposition and grow its team across Europe.

Le Noury (pictured) will play a key role in supporting Gen II’s expansion strategy in Europe by overseeing the business’s drive for operational excellence through process optimization and deployment of cutting-edge technology platforms across Gen II’s European locations including Jersey, UK, Luxembourg and Ireland.

With more than 25 years' experience in financial services and accounting, he is a qualified chartered accountant with expertise in private asset fund administration and accounting, and an in-depth knowledge of industry technology solutions.
Prior to joining Gen II, Matt was European Head of Private Asset Administration for a large global services provider. He is a Fellow of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (FCCA).

Le Noury's appointment follows the recent announcement of the successful close of Gen II’s acquisition of Crestbridge, as the business continues to pursue a growth strategy in Europe and assert its position as one of the world’s largest independent private capital fund administrators.

Michael Johnson, chief commercial officer - Europe said: “Matt’s appointment comes at a fantastic time for the business, as we set out on our new journey in Europe and continue to evolve our market-leading service proposition for private equity and real asset managers both across Europe and globally. His expertise and experience will be vital as we look to further embed cutting-edge systems and integrate greater levels of automation into our capabilities, to provide our clients with the high-quality service they demand.”

Ishita Shah, global chief commercial officer said: “Gen II’s expansion strategy in Europe is underpinned by our commitment to operational excellence delivered though our highly experienced, industry leading teams. I’m excited to welcome Matt to Gen II, where he’ll play a vital role in overseeing the evolution of our operational capabilities across Europe and help us achieve our wider ambition to be the leading global private capital fund administrator.”
