Former Goldman Sachs banker Robert Sorrell has returned to the investment banking fold in a senior financial sponsors advisory role at Moelis, a few months after shutting the hedge fund manager that he left Goldman Sachs to start in 2009.

Sorrell, one of three sons of WPP chief executive Sir Martin Sorrell, worked at Goldman Sachs along with his brothers Mark and Jonathan, but left in late 2009 and set up Sorrell Capital the following year to manage a global opportunities fund with a long/short discretionary, global macro strategy.
