Montgomery expands national distribution team
Montgomery Investment Management has appointed Michael Gollagher to the role of national account manager, responsible for the Queensland market.
In the newly created role he would support the growth of the company’s existing adviser and dealer group relationships in Queensland.
Gollagher had over 18 years’ experience in financial services with distribution roles spanning investments, platform and advice.
Prior to Montgomery he was the business development manager in Queensland at Perpetual Limited for 13 years managing state-based accounts.
Scott Phillips, head of distribution, said: “Michael brings experience across a range of asset classes in both unlisted and listed structures which was important given Montgomery’s capabilities. His addition is seen as a key hire as we continue building our national footprint.”
