Bravura Solutions hires Jon Alder
Software provider Bravura Solutions Limited has appointed Jon Alder as its head of professional services for Australia. Alder will oversee client implementation of the company’s Sonata wealth management application suite, beginning with Russell Investments, which recently signed on to use the software.
Based in Sydney, Alder will report to Jason Tong, Bravura’s chief operating officer for global wealth management. Alder’s role will include business development, as well as monitoring and improving client satisfaction through timely completion of projects and provision of products.
“Jon has exceptionally broad operational and project implementation expertise, as well as many years’ expertise in delivering innovative, strategic products that drive business growth,” Tong said.
“It was important for us to find the right person to fill this role, with requisite skill set to focus on successful client implementations that run on time and budget,” he added.
Prior to joining Bravura Solutions, Alder worked for SS&C Technologies as the head of operations and professional services. In this role he was responsible for managing consultancy, client management and system support for SS&C’s investment management software solutions in Australia.
Alder has also worked for various other financial services firms in Australia and the UK, including Jupiter Unit Trust Managers, Cardif Pinnacle, Mariner Financial, Challenger and Westpac, in operational and leadership roles.
He will commence his new role on 1 August.
