Multiport appoints head of sales
Self-managed super fund (SMSF) administration provider Multiport has appointed Russell Scott as its head of sales and service development.
Scott will be responsible for boosting sales in the accounting and financial planning industries and developing new services for clients in those industries.
He will also be responsible for Multiport's account management and client engagement, including transitioning new clients to Multiport services, Multiport stated.
Scott has more than 20 years experience in financial services, working most recently as general manager of Reckon Docs, a provider of corporate services for accountants and financial planners that included SMSF services, according to Multiport.
He also worked in business services at PricewaterhouseCoopers and was a member of the Australian Securities and Investments Commission business advisory committee from 2007 to 2010.
"Mr Scott's extensive experience in SMSFs and his strong affiliation with both the accounting and financial planning professions will be a significant addition to Multiport's sales and services strategies," Multiport chief executive John McIlroy said.
