J.P. Morgan has appointed Will Jeffries to lead sell-side trading services sales for its international (ex US) business.
In his role, Jeffries will relocate from Hong Kong to London in early 2025, bringing with him over a decade of experience covering the Asian triparty market.
The announcement follows the departure of Marieken Pronk, EMEA head of sell-side trading services sales, who has been with J.P. Morgan for more than 13 years.
Jeffries was previously executive director, APAC head of sell-side trading services sales at J.P. Morgan — a position he held since 2019. He will now expand his role to cover EMEA.
Prior to joining J.P. Morgan, he worked at BNY between 2012 and 2019, where he was most recently director of Clearance and Collateral Management sales.
J.P. Morgan has also positioned Jaymin Patel to run APAC sell-side trading services sales. He will be reporting to Jeffries in his new role.
Together, Patel and Jeffries will help to evolve J.P. Morgan’s global product offering and innovations.
Commenting on the new appointments, Eileen Herlihy, managing director, global head of trading services sales, says: “Our sell-side trading services clients are inherently global in nature and, since we formed the Global Trading Services Sales team two years ago, we’ve continued to increase the holistic coverage of this client base.
“[I thank] Marieken for her many years of loyal service to J.P. Morgan and [wish] her the best for the future. Congratulations to Will and Jaymin for their expanded responsibilities and I look forward to seeing them drive further success in our business.”
