Elston expands distribution team
Elston Asset Management has appointed Samantha Woodham and Jeremy Weber to its distribution team.
Woodham was previously a senior business development manager (BDM) for NSW and WA at Morningstar and Weber was a BDM at Lonsec.
Woodham would be responsible for growing Elston’s presence across Queensland and WA, and was completing her CFA Level 3.
Weber would be working with Elston’s NSW distribution team, servicing advisers and their clients across the country.
At Lonsec, Weber helped grow their managed accounts footprint across Victoria and SA over the last two years and had also worked with HUB24 in NSW.
Mark Smith, Elston’s head of adviser services, said the firm was now working with over 200 advisers nationally.
“Our models are available on six of the leading wrap platforms and we have just surpassed $3 billion in funds under management (FUM),” Smith said.
