Affinia Financial advisers hires business consultants
TAL-backed national dealer group Affinia Financial Advisers has recruited two business consultants to round out its consultancy team.
The dealer group has hired Nadia Docker as it business consultant in Victoria and Tasmania, and Natalie Pegg as the business consultant for Western Australia and South Australia.
They join Kerrin Glover in NSW/ACT and Belinda James in Queensland and the Northern Territory.
Affinia general manager Craig Parker said the appointments come at a time when changing social and regulatory environment highlights the importance of putting customers first.
"The days of developing practices purely around sales and products without considering the end-to-end process with the client at the centre should become a thing of the past," he said.
Docker previously consulted with 55 boutique practices covering 250 advisers. She also has experience in practice management, strategic marketing, engagement of accountants and mortgage brokers, and compliance.
Pegg has vast experience as a risk adviser, dabbling in life risk advice, technical strategies and underwriting and claims services.
Affinia's business consultants work with more than 100 advisers.
