Paul Crawford | 13 Years

Paul joined Fairtree in 2013 and is a Fixed Income Portfolio Manager in the Investment team.

"What I really enjoy about working for Fairtree is the fact that the firm creates a solid foundation where creativity and thought leadership are actively encouraged. This allows us to remain at the forefront of the ever-advancing investment industry as well as differentiate ourselves from other market players. Change is welcomed and encouraged. I enjoy working with my colleagues in our pursuit of excellence, which is used to engineer solutions for our broad client base. Focus on that which is necessary remains key; the rest is just noise. I appreciate the “can-do” attitude that prevails within the firm as well as questioning “Why not?” rather than “Why?”.

We celebrate the people who make Fairtree what it is, and Paul's contribution over the past 13 years is something we truly value.
