FOFA prompts IOOF recruitment drive
IOOF is hiring a head of specialist sales as part of its post-Future of Financial Advice (FOFA) value proposition.
The new recruit will be responsible for the dealer group manager’s specialist products, with a dedicated focus on investment, self-managed and tax offerings.
IOOF general manager of distribution Renato Mota said the appointment was an attempt to tailor services to the post-FOFA world.
“Significant growth in our specialist solutions has resulted in greater focus in creating tailored offers for strategic advice needs,” he said.
The appointment will not affect the structure of the sales team, he added, with Geoff Kellett still heading up the platform’s product sector and Craig Joscelyne remaining in charge of IOOF Alliances.
