Smith & Williamson has hired Giles Worthington from RiverCrest Capital to replace Michael Pascall on the Smith & Williamson European Growth Trust.
Mr Pascall had joined the fund as co-manager in 2009 to assist Mark Pignatelli, taking over as lead manager when Mr Pignatelli retired at the end of 2013.
He has now left the firm as Smith & Williamson has brought in Mr Worthington.
Mr Worthington had managed the RiverCrest European Equity Alpha fund for the past three years since joining the firm in 2011.
He previously ran the M&G European Smaller Companies fund at M&G between 2000 and 2011 and was appointed head of European equities in 2007.
