At DWS, Woitscheck has been instrumental in ETF capital markets, joining the company in 2023 as an analyst and later advancing to an associate position. Prior to his role in ETFs, Woitscheck held the position of commodities analyst at Bloomberg.
Man Group has been actively building its infrastructure to support its European ETF offering and began hiring for this role earlier this year. Michael Barrer, Man Group's head of ETF capital markets, has been leading this initiative to bolster the team in the UK.
