Page quits Ignis for Ardevora

Rob Page is leaving Ignis to join Ardevora, the boutique set up by his former Liontrust colleagues Jeremy Lang and William Pattisson.

Page will become a partner at the firm and will be responsible for developing its IFA distribution. Ardevora has three funds in its range - Ardevora UK Equity Income, UK Equity, and Global Equity.

At Ignis, where Page has worked for 15 months after leaving Liontrust, he will remain in his head of marketing role for another month. After that, James Senior will be stepping up to the role and Graham Miller will be promoted to deputy head of marketing.

Lang and Pattisson left Liontrust in April 2009 and set up Ardevora in the summer of last year.

Page has previously worked at New Star Asset Management.
