Harding-Davis to head Premium
Former Australian Ethical head of sales and marketing, Paul Harding-Davis (pictured), had been appointed as the general manager of Premium Wealth Management.
Harding-Davis takes over from Helen Bridgewood, who has retired after 10 years with Premium.
Harding-Davis has nearly 30 years of business development and marketing experience, which also includes roles at Glebe Asset Management and Absolute Capital, and a long stint at Zurich Financial Services.
His focus at Premium will include both managing the day-to-day operations of the group and the recruitment of new member firms, Premium stated.
“Premium has a long and successful history and I’m looking forward to working with the members and the board to build on that success,” Harding-Davis said.
“I've been fortunate to have been connected to many fine financial planners over the years, and know the value that good advice from an independent organisation can bring to clients.”
Harding-Davis also has experience in managing operations and compliance, providing leadership and strategic direction, and the establishment and growth of successful new ventures in financial planning, according to Premium.
