A London-based salesman at Och-Ziff Capital Management has left the firm, two months after the $35.6bn alternatives manager announced its head of European investing was stepping down after 15 years.

Matt Todd, who joined Och-Ziff from US rival Stark Investments three years ago, left this month, according to a person familiar with the situation. According to the UK's Financial Services Register, Todd was no longer employed by the firm as of last week. At Stark, Todd was head of sales for Europe, Asia and the Middle East.
