Nathan Macfie

With more than 15 years of recruitment experience, Nathan has built his career within Financial Services, developing particular expertise across Asset Management, Buyside, Wealth Management, Investment Management and Asset Servicing. He joined Meraki at its inception in 2015 and has been instrumental in the development of the business ever since.

In 2018, Nathan relocated from Scotland to establish Meraki's London office, building the firm's presence in one of the world's most important Financial Services markets. Since then, he has helped develop an extensive client network across London and the wider UK, partnering with Asset Managers, Wealth Managers, Fund Services businesses and other organisations operating throughout the investment ecosystem.

Today, Nathan leads Meraki's Asset & Wealth Management offering, providing clients with access to specialist recruitment expertise across the entire investment lifecycle. The practice delivers multi-disciplinary coverage spanning Buyside, Banking, Investor Relations, Multi-Asset Brokerage, Marketing & Distribution, Investment Operations and both Public and Private Markets.

Nathan has developed particularly strong expertise within the operational and infrastructure functions that underpin Asset Management. His network spans Investment and Fund Operations, Fund Services, Client and Relationship Management and the increasingly important Private Markets ecosystem. He works with organisations ranging from traditional Asset and Wealth Managers to Fund Services providers, ACDs, Custodians, technology businesses and consultancies.

Nathan's approach is highly consultative. Rather than viewing recruitment as an individual transaction, he works to understand a client's business, operating model, culture and longer-term objectives. This allows him and his team to support everything from individual specialist appointments and senior leadership searches to the development and structure of entire teams.

As a Director, Nathan's responsibilities extend beyond his own market. He plays an active role in the leadership and continued expansion of Meraki's London business, helping to identify new markets, develop client relationships and attract and mentor specialist recruiters as the team grows. His recent expansion of the London Financial Services team has included investment in Asset Management Finance, Change & Transformation, Risk & Compliance and other specialist disciplines.Outside of work, Nathan is a committed marathon runner, having completed marathons in six major cities, as well as a devoted Arsenal supporter. When he's not running or watching football, he enjoys spending time walking his dog.
