The existing CEO founded the business in 2008.

Hawksmoor Investment Management, a UK firm, has named a new chief executive, Sarah Soar, subject to regulatory clearance. After a transition period once she joins, the firm’s founder and CEO John Crowley, will continue as a director of the company, but will give up his executive responsibilities. He has been the CEO since Hawksmoor was founded in 2008.

“As the Company looks forward to the next stage of its development, I am the first to recognise that we need someone with a different background and range of experience to lead the company forward to achieve our ambitious goals,” Crowley said. 

The firm serves private clients, trusts, pension schemes and charities. It also provides model portfolios for financial advisors.

Hawksmoor has offices in Exeter, London, Taunton, Dorchester and Bury St Edmunds.
