Partington was previously the commercial director of IPE, a European private equity fund administration business where he grew top-line revenue growth and led the launch of new AIFMD regulatory and depositary services. 

Prior to his four-year stint at IPE, he held various positions at Langham Hall, UBS Global Asset Management and Swiss Life Asset Management.

In this new role, Partington is responsible for the strategic development of Sanne’s multi- jurisdictional funds capability across the company’s alternative asset classes, comprising private equity, private debt, capital markets and real estate.

Sanne listed on the London Stock Exchange in April 2015. The reporting and fiduciary services provider has a dual organic and acquisition growth strategy.
