Millennium Management’s Bobby Jain is “stepping back” from his role as co-chief investment officer in one of the biggest overhauls at the top of the $59 billion hedge fund firm.

Founder Izzy Englander, 74, is establishing an office of the CIO, which will include two new co-CIOs and two heads of asset class risk management, he said in a memo to staff on Tuesday evening a copy of which was seen by Bloomberg. Paul Russo, currently global head of equities risk, will become one of the new co-CIOs. His counterpart, who wasn’t identified, will join in May.
