Niall McConville joins TOWER Australia
Niall McConville will join TOWER Australia as national dealership manager in May. He is making the move from AIA, where he previously held the same role.
McConville has extensive knowledge of the market and long-standing relationships within the industry, as well as an appreciation of many of TOWER's key strategic partners, the company said.
Pat O’Connor, head of distribution TOWER Australia Retail Life, said attracting a person of Niall’s knowledge and ability highlighted TOWER Australia’s presence in the life insurance market.
“TOWER Australia has continued to grow its position in the Australia life insurance market in recent years and now holds a top-tier place with a competitive offer for the independent financial adviser,” he said.
“The introduction of the Accelerated offering late last year has enhanced our offering, making it easier for advisers and clients to do business with us. Niall will be a key player in TOWER Australia’s continued success in this market,” he added.
