Haramis resigns from RetireInvest
RetireInvest chief executive George Haramis has resigned from his post citing family commitments.
He will officially depart the head role at the ING owned dealer group in June.
Haramis told Money Management this morning that he had not taken up a new position at another employer.
With his home in Melbourne and his office based in Sydney, Haramis has been commuting between the two capitals each week for the 26 months he has been head of RetireInvest.
RetireInvest is currently searching for his replacement.
Of his time in the chief executive role, Haramis said: “It’s been a great experience. I’m pleased with the way things have turned out with the business, the way people have really focused on the business, and we’ve done some very good things in a short period of time.”
Among Haramis’ major achievements were a restructuring of the group’s business operations, the negotiation of a new franchise deal with proprietors, and increasing profitability and adviser numbers.
RetireInvest currently has around 230 planners.
