Knoxville, Tenn., May 1 - GoldenTree Asset Management said it has hired Tom Hajdukiewicz as a portfolio manager, focusing on investment opportunities in the consumer and retail sectors.

He will report to chief executive officer and chief investment officer Steve Tananbaum.

Hajdukiewicz has more than 20 years of investing experience.

Prior to that, he was a portfolio manager at Citigroup Investments and MacKay Shields. While at MacKay Shields, Tom worked for two years with Tananbaum.

"I'm excited to be working with Tom once again," Tananbaum said in a press release.

I look forward to picking up where we left off."
