In her previous roles, her research contributed to Gries' strategies, including the Greater Europe trust.

BlackRock Investment Management said the appointment reflects Dangoor's "excellent alpha contribution as a research analyst, as well as the team's ongoing commitment to the development of talent from within".

The move comes less than a year after Sam Vecht was dropped from the trust's management team, which BlackRock said reflected "the current focus and asset allocation within the portfolio".
