Alan Watson is the first "home grown" Executive Director
promotion since Morgan
Stanley established itself in the city 15 years ago. He
is a great example of the Firm's maturing site in Glasgow. He
started as an analyst in Operations in 2003 moving to Finance in
2004. Following promotion he moved back to Operations
managing a critical control function eventually becoming the Global
head culminating in his promotion to Executive Director.
Alan Watson said, "I joined Morgan Stanley from University and
throughout my career have benefited from the Firm's focus on both
change and people that provides a challenging and rewarding work
environment. As I have taken on more responsibility the
opportunities to drive change across the global organisation have
continued to increase in number and scale. The Firm's culture is
open and supportive providing a platform for people to develop
varied and rewarding careers - it truly is a "one firm"
culture.
Working in Glasgow, I have a strong team of highly skilled
professionals that partner daily with their global counterparts
supporting a dynamic, client focused business. Every day there are
new opportunities to learn and share ideas, enrich your personal
development and to give back to the local community."
