LGV Capital has made its second new appointment to its investment team this year with the appointment of Hannah Gyngell as an Investment Executive. A graduate of Cambridge University where she read Geography & Management Studies, Hannah started her career with Boston Consulting Group where she spent three years, during which time she worked on consulting projects in a number of industries and functions. She has also worked in the Global Market Development team at Unilever plc and within the private equity industry at Cinven.
