Helvetica: Three new members of the management team
The new Head of Asset Management most recently worked for CS, while the new Head of Finance worked for the airline Edelweiss, among others. A new Client Relationship Manager has also joined from the Swiss Finance & Property Group.
Helvetica is filling several key positions in Asset Management, Sales and Finance. Dirk Adriaenssen will be responsible for asset management, Mauro Golinelli for investor relations, particularly in French-speaking Switzerland, and Ruedi Voegeli for finance, controlling and accounting. "As part of the overall strategy, the further development of Helvetica and the positioning of its funds on the market is to be ensured in the long term with sound specialist knowledge," the fund company writes in a press release.
Dirk Adriaenssen joined Helvetica as Head Asset Management in April. He has been working in the real estate industry for over 25 years, ten of them in Switzerland. Most recently, he supported the integration of real estate into the UBS portfolio at Credit Suisse on an advisory mandate basis and acted as Senior Advisor Transaction & Portfolio Management. Prior to that, he worked for the real estate asset manager Redevco for 17 years, including eight years as Country Managing Director for Switzerland and Central Europe.
Mauro Golinelli will take up his position as Client Relationship Manager on June 1. In addition to providing general client support for all Helvetica investment vehicles, he will be responsible for expanding Helvetica's investor presence in French-speaking Switzerland. Golinelli has held the same position at the Swiss Finance & Property Group for twelve years.
