MLChas announced its second executive reshuffle in as many months with the appointment of Alan Logan as general manager of subsidiary groupApogee Financial Planning.

Logan, the former state manager of MLC Alliances, steps into the position vacated by Wayne Handley who moved across in May from Apogee to parent company MLC, to take on a new role focusing on expanding the aligned planning businesses.

As the state manager for MLC Alliances, Logan was responsible for managing the relationships with individually owned and licensed businesses that utilise MLC's advice infrastructure.

Logan has gained experience in a number of different roles focused on advice channel management, business development and marketing, and according to Advice Solutions' chief executive Matt Lawler, Logan's internal experience was a defining factor in his recruitment.

"Logan will bring new insights to both Apogee Financial Planning and the broader Advice Solutions business," Lawler says.

Logan has more than 13 years management experience in the financial services sector, having worked for a number of leading financial services companies including Bankers Trust,Sealcorpand National Mutual.

Meanwhile, Logan's predecessor Wayne Handley has not completely removed himself from his former company, where his involvement stems back since Apogee's inception. He continues to serve on its board of directors.
