Joe Hayward
Tax & Finance Manager
I sit in the finance team at ECI and work with management teams to help monitor our portfolio. I also handle tax matters across the ECI Group, Funds and portfolio companies with the support of our tax advisers. My role occasionally pivots towards our fundraising efforts and I have worked with our investor relations team on both the ECI 10 and ECI 11 fundraises.
Prior to joining ECI in 2012, I interned at US FOF manager Hamilton Lane and at a UK private equity placement agent. I hold a degree in Government and Economics from the London School of Economics and am a Chartered Accountant (ICAEW) and Chartered Tax Adviser (CIOT).
“I volunteered as a Police Officer during university. I was frequently based out of Charing Cross Police Station, a stone’s throw away from ECI’s offices, and don’t miss experiencing the dark underbelly of Covent Garden!”
“I have played the saxophone since I was almost the size of it.”
“No international A-Lister fame, but I was once typecast as the clueless village policeman in a local panto.”
