Despite the global downturn, Frontier Investment Consulting is continuing to recruit and has appointed Dean Glasscock as an analyst.
Glasscock was previously an investment analyst with Viridis Energy Capital, where he was responsible for assisting with analysis on renewable and clean energy products. Prior to this he was an intern at UBS Wealth Management.
"Dean will join Frontier's consulting team and be involved with both client work and investment research across a number of sectors," Frontier managing director Fiona Trafford-Walker said.
Trafford-Walker said Frontier would continue to recruit and was on the lookout for another analyst and a consultant.
Since December 2008, Frontier has added three people to its team.
In January, it hired Martin Thompson as an analyst and in December last year the firm recruited Jennifer Lam to the position of associate consultant and Ching Lee as an analyst.
"Frontier is in an unusual position in that we are currently seeking to grow our staff rather than shrink as many in the finance industry are. In the current market turmoil, Frontier is busier than ever in helping clients through these uncertain times," Trafford-Walker said.
