Day said, “I am delighted to be embarking upon this fresh challenge, particularly as the ifs School of Finance is currently in the process of applying for taught degree awarding powers. I am keen to play a part in the next phase of our development as an independent body with degree-awarding powers responding quickly and effectively to the educational needs of the financial services sector. I will also be seeking to further enhance our existing collaborative arrangements with Higher Education Institutions such as the University of Manchester and the University of Kent as well as building our international activities.”
Gavin Shreeve, chief executive of the ifs School of Finance, said: “Martin brings a wealth of experience from his time as International Business Director at Henley Management College. Our Higher Education programmes continue to go from strength to strength and having Martin on board will help to further enhance and extend our offering.”
