GoldenSource, a leading independent provider of enterprise data management (EDM) and master data management (MDM) solutions, has ushered in a new chapter of growth with the appointment of James Corrigan as CEO. Corrigan succeeds John Eley, who steps down from the position after a decade at the helm.
Corrigan brings extensive experience in growing global financial technology companies, both public and private equity-backed. Prior to GoldenSource, Corrigan served as President of the Beacon Platform from 2022-2023. Before Beacon, Corrigan served as Executive Vice President and Managing Director at SimCorp, a global buy-side investment management platform, Corrigan led SimCorp’s growth in North America over 8 years and served on the Global Management Committee, where the company focused on innovating with its clients, leading to its growth from €200 million to €550 million in just 8 years. Prior to SimCorp, Corrigan held various leadership roles within SunGard’s Capital Markets Business. Corrigan started his career as a Management Consultant. Corrigan’s proven track record in the space will enable GoldenSource to rapidly expand its growing buy-side client base, which includes asset and wealth managers, pension funds, and sovereign wealth funds.
His deep expertise in strategy development, client consultancy, and operational optimization will play a crucial role in enhancing GoldenSource’s client services and driving continued innovation across the company’s offerings.
Former CEO John Eley commented, “It has been an honor to lead the GoldenSource team over the past decade and to contribute to a pivotal chapter in the company’s journey. I extend my congratulations to Jamie as he steps into his new role and I’m confident that, with his wealth of experience and industry expertise, he will continue to solidify GoldenSource’s position as the go-to provider of data management solutions across financial services for many years to come.”
“John has been instrumental in driving GoldenSource’s growth over the past decade, and I’m excited to take the reins and continue that journey,” Mr. Corrigan said. “For over four decades, GoldenSource has been a pioneer in the data management technology space. More recently, it has been a leader in the evolution of cloud technology for data management, which is central to its offering and warrants significant opportunities for further innovation. I’m honored to have the opportunity to work with our clients and the GoldenSource team to build on its legacy and advance the company’s strategic vision for the future.”
