Russell Investments has appointed Len Brennan as the new global president and chief executive of the company.

He replaces Andrew Doman, who will continue to assist the company in his new position as chairman of the board, while existing chairman Ed Zore will remain on the board as a director.

Brennan has spent more than 25 years with Russell and is currently chief executive of the Europe, Middle East and Africa business — a role that he will continue to perform.

In his time with the company, Brennan has held a number of senior management positions, most recently as managing director of Individual Investor Services.

In this role, Brennan was responsible for the global third-party funds distribution business and individual investor services in the United States, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, South Africa, Canada and Australia.

He has also worked as president and chief executive of Rainer Investment Management for six years.

Brennan, who will be based in Seattle, said he intends to concentrate on constantly evolving the company in order to meet the changing needs of clients globally.
