Morningstar hires two BDMs
To help build its Australian sales and client relationship capabilities, Morningstar has appointed two business development managers (BDMs).
Based in Melbourne, Jill Tunkin will manage the sale of Morningstar's solutions and build client relationships across Victoria, South Australia, Western Australia and Tasmania.
She was recently Fidelity Investments' national account manager/BDM for Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania, working closely with financial planning groups. She also worked in a similar capacity at HSBC Asset Management.
"Jill's appointment in particular represents Morningstar's commitment to clients in the southern states," Morningstar Australasia head of sales Nigel Crampton said.
As a former BDM with van Eyk Research, Angela O'Connor will be based in Sydney and cover client relationships across New South Wales, the ACT and Queensland.
Prior to joining van Eyk, Tunkin held the role of BDM at AEGON (the insurance, pensions and asset management group), based in the UK.
