Legg Mason appoints national key account manager



Fund manager, Legg Mason has appointed Matt Stovold as its new national key account manager based in its newly-opened Sydney office.
Stovold will report to Legg Mason’s head of sales, Beau Titchkosky, and will have responsibility for driving retail distribution and key partner relationship management across NSW and Queensland, as well as heading the Sydney-based office.
Stovold would join Legg Mason after having worked recently at UBS Wealth Management, where he was a managing director and JBWere Private Wealth Management where he was the head of advice.
Stovold also spent time within Goldman Sachs JBWere where he was a partner of the firm and the head of retail within the asset management business.
Commenting on the appointment, Titchkosky said Stovold had demonstrated results-driven success in his previous roles and was perfectly placed to lead the development of Legg Mason’s retail business across key regions.
