Channel Capital appoints Head of Marketing

Channel Capital, a multi-boutique funds management firm, has announced the appointment of Angela Dovitsas to the newly-created role of head of marketing, communications and content, effective January 2018.

Dovitsas is a B2B senior marketing and content specialist, with over 17 years' experience gained working in institutional and retail funds management across traditional and alternative asset classes at Macquarie. She has worked closely with advisers and their high net worth clients at Perpetual Private, and most recently within the platform space at Mason Stevens, where she was responsible for the digital marketing strategy, execution and content development of the separately managed account and managed portfolio business.

At Channel, she joins new hire Byron Slessar, who stepped into a distribution director role earlier this month.

Commenting on their appointments, Channel's head of distribution, Andrew King, said: "As we grow our business and boutique investment manager stable, it's crucial that our team has an investment specialist focus, and Byron and Angela bring that to our business. We see 2018 as being an exciting year for Channel Capital and we're delighted to have strengthened our team with the appointment of Byron and Angela."
