“I am very pleased that we have been able to hire someone with the depth of experience and market knowledge that Andrew has," said Stephen Foss, managing director at Cordiant.
"He is a great addition to the team and we view this strategic appointment as a key component for the next stage of growth following a successful start to the year with our two equity financings and acquisition of Ceske Radiokomunikace (CRA) in the Czech Republic.”
Ewe enters the role with eight years of corporate, investment banking and advisory experience. He joins from Investec, where he spent almost four years working in their infrastructure and power sector banking group.
Prior to this, he also held roles at Deloitte in the Government and Infrastructure team as well as global infrastructure and audit roles at Mazars.
“When I was looking for my next challenge, I wanted to work for a firm that could provide an entrepreneurial environment and is at the forefront of the sector," said Ewe.
"That is what I found in Cordiant and I am looking forward to working with the team, whom I have known for some time.”
