Alison Massey has been promoted to head of compliance for Synchron amidst an executive reorganisation caused by the news that Don Trapnell would be stepping back from the day-to-day management of the business.
Massey has a long career in financial services, including as the national advice solutions manager for Australian Unity, a financial planner with NAB, and a few years as a case manager with the Financial Ombudsman Service. She joined Synchron in early 2018.
She's also the co-author of the book Financial Affairs for Women.
Said Trapnell, "I have known Alison for over 30 years and have a deep respect for her abilities.
"We believe that collectively, the Synchron management team has the wealth of industry knowledge necessary to continue to meet ever-increasing regulatory obligations and deliver outstanding outcomes for advisers and their clients," Trapnell said.
