Joining the firm on 28 April, Nesbit will be responsible for the key London accounts and report to Simon Hillenbrand, head of UK retail distribution.
Other members of the London retail sales team include Matthew Frost and William Hamilton. Prior to joining Goldman Sachs, Nesbit worked in a similar role at Aviva Investors.
"It is important that we have people of good calibre in place to support our clients and to provide excellent service. Having someone with Matthew's experience and enthusiasm is a welcome addition to the team. This is testament to the headway we have made in recent years and is in keeping with our ambitions to be a leading fund management business," Hillenbrand said.
