AMP looks for growth in North Qld
AMP Financial Planning is looking for growth in the North Queensland market, reflecting the rapid expansion of areas such as Townsville.
The group has appointed a new business partnership manager, David Randall, to provide support to AMP planners in the areas north of Rockhampton and west to Mount Isa.
AMP’s head of financial planning for Queensland, Bill Justo, said the group was seeking to support planners in providing advice to growing numbers of clients, while also looking to grow the number of practices in that region and ensure those businesses are running efficiently.
Justo said the new full-time position was necessary to cater to the needs of the region.
AMP recruited Randall from Westpac, and he will be based in Townsville.
