Prior to that he held roles at Refinitiv, ICICI Bank and FlexTrade. As Director of Customer Success, Dalwani will work to develop initiatives and campaigns to drive revenue and optimize customer use of Talos’ services in the APAC region.

Phillip Beasley-Harling comes to Talos with 20 years of capital markets experience, most recently as Managing Director at Beasley-Harling Trading. He has also held previous executive roles at Squarepoint Capital, Morgan Stanley and Bank of America. As VP of Engineering for EMEA, Beasley-Harling will coordinate, develop, and oversee all of Talos’ engineering and development activities in the region.

Conor Shea comes to Talos with over 10 years of marketing and communications experience with previous executive positions as SVP of Financial Communications & Capital Markets at Edelman and Head of U.S. Marketing at IG. In his new role as Head of Marketing and Communications, Shea will be responsible for developing, implementing and monitoring Talos’ global business marketing strategy.
