Partners Group, a private market specialist based in Zug, has made several new appointments in its management team. One notable addition is the newly created position of Chief of Corporate Development. In contrast, the company has decided to integrate its HR department into the finance division.
On Thursday, Partners Group announced several appointments to its executive team. Juri Jenkner, who currently serves as Co-Head of Investments, will also take on the role of President in early 2024. In this position, he will be responsible for driving the implementation of corporate and business development initiatives. Jenkner will work closely with CEO David Layton and Chairman Steffen Meister.
Esther Peiner will assume the leadership and operational responsibility of the Private Infrastructure division, pending approval from the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA). Peiner, who has been with the company since 2015, will report to Jenkner as part of the executive team.
As previously announced, Joris Gröflin will join Partners Group as Chief Financial Officer (CFO). He previously served as CFO of Swiss utility company Axpo.
However, Kirsta Anderson, the Chief People Officer, will no longer be part of the executive team. She will transition into an advisory role and step down from management at the end of January. Anderson joined Partners Group three years ago with the mandate to reform the company’s corporate culture and talent strategy.
Going forward, the finance division will be responsible for both HR and payroll matters at the company.
Starting in January, the executive team will consist of CEO David Layton, CFO Joris Gröflin, COO and Co-General Counsel Andreas Knecht, President & Co-Head of Investments Juri Jenkner, Co-Head of Investments and Head of Private Equity Wolf-Henning Scheider, Co-Head of Client Solutions Sarah Brewer, Head of Portfolio Solutions Roberto Cagnati, and Head of Private Infrastructure Esther Peiner.
