Barclays Bank has hired Elizabeth Goodall, interest rate saleswoman at JPMorgan in London, and Biraj Parmar, finance director at UKprocure, a supplier of products to the public sector, in London, as senior treasury advisors in its derivatives sales team in London. The bank also plans to bring more staffers on board in the same area. Goodall and Parmar report to Tim Kirkham, head of derivatives sales in London. Goodall, who started last week, and Parmer, who starts this week, were both on a training course and could not be reached.
Kirkham said the hires are part of the bank's ongoing effort to increase its derivatives sales coverage for small and medium-sized corporates (DW, 8/5) and plans to add three more staffers this year--one by April, another by June and a third by September. Goodall and Parmar will be responsible for sales of derivative products, including interest rates and foreign exchange derivatives, within the U.K.
At UKprocure, Parmar reported to Shish Lal, ceo in London, who declined comment.
