We're thrilled to announce the promotion of Will Caiger-Smith to VP Content, as the business continues to scale rapidly across Europe and the US.

Will was previously US Managing Editor at 9fin. In his new VP Content role, he joins Jen Speirs, who was promoted to VP Operations last year, in our growing leadership team.

Both VP positions have global mandates and demonstrate our continued investment in people and commitment to rapidly progressing talented leaders within the business.

As VP Content, Will directs all news and analytics across the editorial, credit, legal and ESG teams. The promotion comes as 9fin has expanded from its core leveraged finance coverage into private credit, distressed debt, and structured credit (CLOs) across Europe and the US. These new verticals further our mission to be the #1 provider of data, news and analytics globally across debt capital markets.

Will continues to report directly to CEO and co-founder, Steven Hunter.

Will Caiger-Smith commented:

“I joined 9fin because I believed the company and its founders had the vision and technology to build the comprehensive debt intelligence platform the market needs,” said Will.

“In my two and a half years at this company, that belief has only intensified. I’m delighted to be driving forward the content side of the business.”

Steven Hunter, CEO and co-founder, said:

“I’ve been incredibly impressed by Will’s contributions to scaling 9fin in just a couple of years. He opened and scaled our US office from scratch and has built a world-class team. I am delighted to see him promoted into a new expanded role and join Jen as part of our VP level leadership. I am excited to work with them both to take 9fin to the next level”
