Soren Rosenkrantz Klausen, the Sales Director at Alp Financial (AlpFin), has joined PrimeXM, a provider of forex trading technology, as its Head of Global Sales.
Klausen, who joined London-based broker AlpFin in August 2020, departed from the brokerage after a career stay of two years and two months.
He announced his new appointment on Wednesday on professional networking site LinkedIn.
The executive is stepping in the shoes of Andreas Charalambous who departed PrimeXM in 2020 to join multi-asset liquidity provider Broctagon Fintech Group.
Klausen boasts of 36 years of work experience in senior sales positions at Euronext FX, Bloomberg LP, Deutsche Bank, Morgan Stanley and JPMorgan Chase & Co.
Before Alp Financial, he was the Senior Sales Director at Integral Development Corporation, a forex-focused workflow management and advanced execution firm.
Industry Sales Veteran
Klausen kicked off his career in sales in the financial industry in August 1986 when he joined Danske Bank, a Danish multinational banking and financial services corporation. He spent over eight years at the company in a sales trading role.
Between 1995 and April 2002, he worked for JP Morgan Chase & Col, Morgan Stanley, and Deutsche Bank on sales, forex advisory, and as the Head of FX Sales Northern Europe, respectively.
In May 2002, he joined the Bank of America Merill Lynch as the Head of Instititional FX Sales for Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA).
He would stay on the role for almost seven years before joining Bloomberg LP as FX Sales Head for EMEA in April 2013.
Klausen also worked for Euronext FX as a Sales Director and later Parabellum Markets LLP as the Head of Sales between April 2016 and January 2019.
