Trusted, ten-year company veteran will focus on expanding the firm’s global presence and capabilities to serve its growing investor base

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--EnTrust Global, a leading alternative asset management firm, today announced the appointment of Sophia Mullen as President, the first role of its kind at the company. Mullen will continue to head EnTrust Global’s $8 billion opportunistic co-investment strategy and remain on EnTrust Global’s Management Committee and Global Investment Committee.

“It has been a great privilege to watch Sophia evolve into a firm leader over her ten years at EnTrust Global, and as the firm’s first President, Sophia’s appointment solidifies the crucial role she's played improving our business for investors and employees alike,” said Gregg S. Hymowitz, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of EnTrust Global. “After playing an important role in helping EnTrust Global become a leader in asset management, Sophia’s new position underscores the internal impact she’s made building meaningful relationships across various teams and mentoring the next generation of investment professionals.”

“It has been extremely fulfilling to work with my colleagues at EnTrust over the past ten years, and I am even more excited about what we can all achieve together in the future on behalf of our investors. I am honored that Gregg has the confidence in me to play a key role in representing the firm and strengthening its position as a global leader in alternative asset management,” said Sophia Mullen, President of EnTrust Global. “I also hope this new role for me will encourage young women and reinforce the opportunities for them to achieve leadership roles in our industry.”
