Jordan was earlier this year appointed as head of GFS in Australia and New Zealand to support the firm’s growing fund service. In his new role, he will report to Peter Cherecwich, head of GFS, and William Mak, Singapore-based head of Northern Trust in the Asia-Pacific region.

Jordan joined the firm in 1992 and has served as chief administration officer for Northern Trust GFS from his London base where he was responsible for the firm’s global institutional client relationships. He was also involved in the business expansion in Ireland, where he was managing director for three years.

West, the outgoing head of GFS, was involved in growing the business’ regional hub in Hong Kong. In her new role, she will lead the group responsible for large, global and prospective GFS clients.
