IOOF switches focus to advisers
IOOF is restructuring its sales team and redesigning distribution efforts to meet a new core commitment, which will see an increasing focus on advisers and clients rather than on product-based sales initiatives.
The former head of IOOF Super, Steve Black, would move to a new position as the head of client delivery, while former head of investment sales, Daniel Dalton, has been appointed as head of specialist solutions. Queensland state manager, Julie Wise, would move to the position of head of sales enablement.
The appointments follow the announcement of Chris Weldon as IOOF head of product and Dominique Ambrogio as national marketing manager.
