Tyndall appoints new Head of Distribution

James Wesley has joined Tyndall NZ as Head of Distribution. He will be responsible for leading Tyndall’s business development team and has overall responsibility for the sales, marketing and client servicing functions within the business.

Wesley joins Tyndall from UK-based Threadneedle Investments, where he was Director, Head of Australia, Wholesale Distribution.

“It is a great opportunity to have someone of James’ pedigree come back to the New Zealand marketplace,” said Peter Lynn, Tyndall’s managing director “It is even more exciting that James will be part of the Tyndall team and lead the future direction of our business development, which is focused on securing our position as New Zealand’s leading investment manager.”

Tyndall is the only New Zealand investment manager owned by a global asset manager. The firm was purchased by Tokyo-based Nikko Asset Management in 2011.
