TIME Investments, which specialises in tax-efficient investment solutions and asset-backed income-producing funds across real estate, infrastructure, renewable energy, and lending, has hired product development expert Tom Mullard to take on the newly created role of Business Line Director (Tax).
Tom is responsible for the oversight and day-to-day management of the TIME tax services, including TIME:Advance, TIME:AIM and TIME:CTC. His focus is to ensure that TIME remains at the forefront of financial advisers’ minds when considering Inheritance Tax (IHT) planning.
He will support TIME’s extensive sales and distribution team and keep abreast of all developments in the Business Relief market. He will work across the business to make sure TIME continues to offer best in class investments and customer service, using his extensive experience of the tax-efficient investment market.
Prior to joining TIME, Tom was at Downing LLP for over 12 years, where he was a Director of the Product Team. He initially joined as a Fund Accountant before taking on a new role in 2016 to establish a specialist team that focused on new product launches, fund structuring, strategy and development of existing products, and technical support for the sales team and to support investor reporting.
Nigel Ashfield, Managing Director of TIME Investments, said: “Tom will play a crucial role in the business in his newly created position, ensuring that TIME continues to provide the market with relevant, high-quality products and services, for which we have already built a strong reputation and market-leading position.”
Tom Mullard, Business Line Director at TIME said: “My new role at TIME Investments is an exciting opportunity to use my experience to help further develop an already strong business and ensure it continues to create innovative products and services which meet an important need in the market as the IHT burden continues to increase for many.”
TIME has also further strengthened its marketing team. It has hired Tejwinder Laroya as
Marketing Manager to raise awareness of its innovative range of funds with financial advisers, DFMs and wealth managers. With over ten years’ financial services marketing experience, Tejwinder has joined TIME from Schroder Wealth Management where she was responsible for building the Cazenove Capital brand and promoting its products and services. She has also held roles at brands including Santander Asset Management and T.Rowe.Price.
TIME has also hired a Senior Marketing Executive, Hettie Blampied, and Asmus Neergaard, a Digital Marketing Specialist, to bolster the team’s capabilities.
Nigel Ashfield, Managing Director of TIME Investments, said: “We are delighted to welcome Tejwinder, Hettie and Asmus to the business. They bring valuable expertise and will focus on promoting our range of products and services and helping to build the TIME brand as we pursue our growth strategy and consolidate our trusted position with the adviser community.”
Tejwinder said: “I am pleased to be joining a business which offers a range of alternative funds that are particularly relevant in today’s volatile economic climate and can provide investors with a reliable source of income which is otherwise hard to achieve.”
