ValidPath, the network for independent financial advisers, has announced the appointment of Rory Jackson as Network Development Manager as it expands its team to support independent financial advisers (IFAs) and IFA firms who are looking to join ValidPath and their independent proposition. He is based in London and supports firms across the country and reports to Network Development Director Richard Phillips.
Rory has over 10 years’ business development experience in financial services before which he served as an officer in the Royal Navy for seven years. Most recently he was a regional business manager for Tenet, and prior to that he spent over 4 years at TCC Group supporting IFA firms to access compliance, regulatory and business support services.
Angus MacNee, CEO, ValidPath, said:
“Increasingly, ValidPath is becoming more differentiated in the marketplace as a modern and independent proposition for IFAs, and therefore more and more IFAs are seeking to switch to or join ValidPath to support their business. Rory has significant experience in the industry and joins our team to support IFAs, whether they are new starters, appointed representatives or directly authorised, to access our independent proposition. We are pleased to welcome him to the ValidPath team and look forward to him making a positive contribution to our IFA members and their growth.”
Rory Jackson, added:
“I have been following ValidPath with great interest over recent years and have been impressed with their commitment to independence and overall network proposition for IFAs that includes great technology, a fantastic culture and an independent succession solution. When the opportunity presented itself to work with them, I was very pleased to join the team, and look forward to speaking with IFAs interested in utilising our great proposition.”
