Future Capital Partners, the GBP6bn alternative investment boutique, has strengthened its business development team with the appointment of Alan Cross as business development manager.
Cross brings over 22 years of financial services experience to Future Capital.
He will be responsible for developing and strengthening relationships with key accountancy and intermediary firms among Future Capital’s client base in Scotland and Northern Ireland.
