JDX welcomes Mark during an exciting and progressive time. His unrivalled experience, insight and expertise will be a huge asset as the Firm continues to grow its delivery capability. Mark will be a member of the JDX Senior Leadership team working closely with Managing Director Stuart McClymont to support the development of JDX's global solutions capability leading the Market Infrastructure domain.
