Suncorp-owned dealer group Guardian Advice has made a number of senior appointments including Mark Kevin as NSW/ACT state manager.
Kevin was previously IPAC's NSW/ACT manager, partnering and advice strategy, and prior to that spent seven years with Count Financial in practice management roles.
His new role will involve the management of an equity partnership model, a key strategic area that Guardian will be focusing on over the next year.

He will have responsibility for the group's approved product list, providing technical and strategic guidance, and research thought leadership across the Suncorp, Guardian and Standard Pacific advice businesses.
Bevan was recently an analyst with Perpetual's investment research and analytics team.
