"I am eager to continue my development with the firm and I am truly grateful for the team and firm's support."
Ralston Thorpe, part of Ogier Global's Corporate team, has been promoted from Senior Corporate Administrator to Regulatory Reporting Manager. Ralston is responsible for managing and overseeing Ogier Global's regulatory reporting.
