Scott Mozarsky has been appointed the regional managing director of Vannin Capital for North America.

He will be based in the legal finance firm's New York City office. He joins Vannin from Bloomberg BNA, where he was president of Bloomberg Law.

Prior to that, he worked at United Business Media for 13 years in a number of roles including global co-head of mergers and acquisitions and general counsel.

Mozarksy joins Vannin at a time when the company is experiencing significant growth, including the recent hiring of two new U.S. managing directors.

“He is well known in legal circles, and his experience as a lawyer and business leader makes him an ideal fit to develop and execute our U.S. strategy,” Richard Hextall, the firm's CEO, said in a statement.
