He will lead the firm's efforts to strengthen and expand relationships with investment consultants globally, reporting to Jennifer Ryan, Head of North America Distribution for LAM.

Mr. Wosneski joins Lazard Asset Management from Man Group, where he most recently served as a Managing Director in Consultant Relations. He was responsible for leading coverage of global and U.S. consulting firms, and he successfully attained positive ratings across multiple strategies while contributing significantly to the firm’s institutional business development efforts.

Robert Connin, who previously led the firm’s Consultant Relations efforts, transitioned earlier this year to a new role as Head of Business Intelligence. In his new role, Mr. Connin leads a team responsible for delivering market and competitive intelligence to better inform client engagement.
