As Parmenion’s Chief Commercial Officer, I’m responsible for growing mutually beneficial relationships with both existing and new customers, and for strategic mergers and acquisitions that strengthen our offer in the wealth management sector.

I’m a Board member of PIMFA, the trade body for the financial advice profession in the UK, and have over 30 years’ experience in distribution management and proposition development at AXA, HSBC, Ascentric and, most recently, Openwork. This experience gives me the broad perspective of both provider and customer in this space.

I believe there’s a real opportunity to disrupt the current platform model by developing genuinely symbiotic relationships with our partners, and that Parmenion’s strength and scale mean we are perfectly placed to be one of those disruptors.

Born and raised in Belfast, I’m a big Ireland & Ulster Rugby supporter and proud dad to 3 grown up daughters, which means I’ve grown very used to ‘constructive feedback’ over the years.
