Hoy has held a number of senior positions across the financial services sector, particularly in banks and investment firms, including Greenhill & Co, where he was the managing director and head of financial services corporate advisory Asia-Pacific.

The Fin365 platform utilises AI and cloud technology, such as Microsoft Dynamics 365, Power BI, Azure and Copilot to help financial services businesses streamline operations and enhance client engagement, productivity and growth.
In his new role, Hoy will work with the other board members, utilising their collective industry knowledge to help steer the firm through its “next phase of growth”.
Speaking on the announcement, the firm’s CEO said that Hoy’s appointment comes at a “pivotal time” as they continue to grow in the platform market.
“As demand for our software and services continues to grow rapidly, Scott’s extensive experience in executing strategic growth initiatives will be invaluable,” Handley said.
“His leadership will help us sharpen our focus and accelerate our march to becoming the premier technology partner for financial services firms.”
Reflecting on this, Hoy said he is pleased to be joining the firm “at such a dynamic time”.
“The company’s commitment to innovation, its deep integration with Microsoft’s technology stack and its intense customer-first approach, position it as a true leader in the financial services technology space,” Hoy said.
“I look forward to working with Stephen, Greg, Jo, and the broader team to help Fin365 scale its impact and deliver even greater value to its customers.”
