Majithia to lead Emerson Chase City’s growth in finance sector

Emerson Chase City (ECC) has hired Dev Majithia as director of its London
headquarters. Majithia aims to grow the company’s presence in the hedge
fund market, and build an office management and support staff business.

“I’m very excited. I wanted to join a specialist [recruiter] and this
company was set up in 2004 to focus on hedge funds and other buy-side
companies. Regardless of the state of the market, that position remains
firm,” Majithia told Recruiter.

Scott Cowan, managing director of ECC, said: “It is evident that Dev’s
first-hand experience and consequent knowledge of the workings of the
industry have assisted him greatly in forging his career to date. This will
doubtless prove to be a major asset.”

Majithia has been involved in the asset management, hedge fund and
alternative investment recruitment arena for more than 12 years.
