Kirk resigns from Genesys


|
Genesys Wealth Advisers chief executive Greg Kirk will step down at the end of this year, with ipac executive John Saint to take up the top job at the AXA-owned dealer group.
A statement from Genesys said Kirk would be taking a 'career break' and that his resignation was in line with the contract negotiated at the time of AXA's acquisition of the group.
Saint will step into the role on December 7, leaving his current role as head of business partnering with ipac Securities.
Kirk will act as a non-executive director of Genesys Group Holdings from January next year.
In other movements, Neil Swindells is stepping down as non-executive chairman of Genesys, but will remain on the board as a director. Andrew Waddell will replace Swindells in his executive chairman capacity.
