QMV appoints new CEO


Financial services consulting firm QMV has appointed Marcus Pearl to the newly-created role of chief executive officer.
Based in Melbourne, Pearl would report to the QMV board of directors and would be responsible for leading QMV’s group of companies through the next growth phase.
As CEO, Pearl would head QMV’s core advisory and consulting business alongside its technology and legal subsidiaries. QMV managing director, Mark Vaughan, would move into an executive director role on Pearl’s appointment.
Prior to joining QMV, Pearl spent seven years at Primacy Underwriting Management, where he was most recently CEO. He also spent nine years at ANZ as a director within its Global Financial Markets business based in Singapore, and as a strategy analyst located in Melbourne.
Vaughan said Pearl brought almost 20 years of experience in managing business development across technology, sales and marketing, and client services.
“Marcus is a highly experienced and knowledgeable leader with exceptional credentials. He has a diverse skillset and a proven history of building high performing teams, as well as driving business growth and client-focused innovation.
“This experience will serve QMV well as it continues to grow capability and scale, and delivers on plans to enter new geographical markets and industries with its data quality solution, Investigate DQ.”
Dominic Pelligana, QMV’s chairman, said: “Pearl’s appointment signals the board’s belief in QMV’s continued growth trajectory, and its position as a market leading provider of integrated consulting and technology solutions”.
QMV was founded in 2008 and provides advisory and consulting services, technology and legal services across the superannuation, wealth management and insurance industries.
