Former IWL general manager, marketing, Ian Aspinall has announced his departure from IWL, after four years with the firm.

Aspinall was both divisional operating officer retail wealth and the general manager, marketing, overseeing retail and wholesale business development.

His position was made redundant shortly after IWL was bought by the Commonwealth Bank ofAustralia late last year.

According to Aspinall, the split with CBA was completely amicable.

“My leaving was in good spirit, there are absolutely no hard feelings,” he said.

“I have actually recently been invited to participate in a side project, but it’s nothing I can speak of at this time. My plan is to take the next two months off and relax, while looking for the next opportunity.”

Thirty-six-year-old Aspinall started at IWL in 2003 in senior business development before rising in the ranks to become divisional operating officer.
