BIP appoints Alistair Lovegrove as chief strategy officer in UK
BIP has appointed Alistair Lovegrove as its chief strategy officer for its UK division. Lovegrove will drive the integration and growth of the business.
Speaking on his appointment, Lovegrove commented, “I am delighted to be joining the team at BIP as we combine our abilities to deliver long-lasting and sustainable value to our clients. BIP’s combination of deep specialist expertise and broad industry knowledge means that it is well placed to help its UK clients navigate the challenges of operating in one of the most open and competitive markets anywhere.”
Brining over 25 years of business experience to BIP, Lovegrove arrives from the Instant Group, where he served as chief operating officer. Prior to that, he also served as chief operating officer at NTT Data.
His appointment comes as part of a widespread change at the top of BIP’s UK wing. Recently, this also saw Roei Haberman succeed Chris Laslett – who had been the firm’s CEO since its time as Chaucer.
On the further transformation of BIP UK’s senior team, Haberman added, “Alistair will be a great addition to our team, with his previous experience of bringing together several legacy businesses and unifying them under a single, strong and supportive culture. I look forward to working with him again.”
Continuing BIP’s wider strategy to embed expertise for long-term, sustainable change within its organisation, the firm also recently sealed two acquisitions. It sealed a deal for Riskcare, a specialist capital markets consultancy at the forefront of fintech innovation; and Verco, a certified B Corporation which helps companies reduce their environmental impact with data-driven analysis, net zero strategies and transition plans.
