SANNE, a global provider of alternative asset and corporate business services has appointed Milivoje Jakimov to the role of Country Head – Belgrade.
Based in SANNE’s Belgrade office, Milivoje will be focusing on product development and technology, exploring new strategic business development opportunities throughout the regions SANNE operates in whilst raising the brand and people profile of the Belgrade office. In the last three years since SANNE’s acquisition of FLSV Fund Administration’s (FAS) Belgrade office, it has evolved into a technological centre of excellence for client and group services, growing from 35 employees to a strong team of more than 100 people.
Milivoje will be responsible for continuing to drive SANNE’s alternatives and corporate offering across the EMEA region. As an experienced finance professional and having worked in Belgrade for more than 14 years, Milivoje joined SANNE in 2016 as the first employee within the company’s Global Business Systems department responsible for fund administration platforms and highly critical business application portfolios. From January 2019, he became part of SANNE’s Global Product Development team, responsible for technology which is led by Jason Bingham, Managing Director, Product Development.
Jason said: “We see a number of growth opportunities for our EMEA region and Milivoje in his new role as Country Head – Belgrade will help the business deliver on these. His background in global business systems will be instrumental in supporting SANNE’s future development and regional growth plans.”
Milivoje Jakimov added: “I watched SANNE successfully grow from strength to strength over the years. The company is uniquely positioned in that it offers high quality products across 19 global office networks. I’m delighted to have the opportunity to lead SANNE’s Belgrade business whilst utilising and promoting the Belgrade office on the corporate map. I look forward to spreading local best practices and working closely with the senior leadership team in supporting the wider business across the EMEA region.”
