RetireInvest rejuvenated by new and old blood

Highly regarded technical expert Roslyn Shirlaw has returned to the RetireInvest fold after an absence of just over a year.

Highly regarded technical expert Roslyn Shirlaw has returned to the RetireInvest fold after an absence of just over a year.

The former head of RetireInvest's research and technical team left after five years with the group for Colonial where she was national technical services manager. Her new role at RetireInvest sees her at the group's funds management division, Australian Portfolio Managers, where she will be national manager of service development.

Shirlaw says the move is a new tack for her career which has focussed on providing planners with technical and research support.

"The focus now will be using that technical knowledge in project man-agement and product development," she says.

Shirlaw says she leaves Colonial on good terms, explaining she is looking for new challenges.

"Colonial have been fantastic to work for and the person who takes over my position will have excellent career prospects in developing the technical services operations" she says.

RetireInvest scored another recruitment coup earlier this month with the appointment of former Davey Financial Management marketing man-ager Lynne Wyatt.

Wyatt takes over the national marketing manager role left vacant by Murray McGregor who has gone to St George.

Her departure from Davey follows the acquisition of the group by Charterbridge Financial Management earlier this year.
