Bombora Advice has announced the appointment of industry stalwart David Mounsey to the newly created role of Business Growth and Development Manager.
Founder and Managing Director Wayne Handley says Mounsey brings significant industry experience and insight that will be utilised to strengthen the firm’s risk specialist marketplace offering and drive the national licensee’s next growth stage.
Prior to joining Bombora, Mounsey held senior executive roles at AIA and TAL, most recently as the Head of Sales for TAL (2016-2022).
The firm says Mounsey’s understanding and appreciation of risk insurance from the adviser’s perspective is further deepened by working with his partner to run a successful risk practice for many years.
Operating from the licensee’s Melbourne head office Mounsey’s role will encompass two key areas:
- To attract new quality practices / advisers to Bombora’s national network of risk advice professionals
- To work with existing practices to develop referral relationships with other professional service firms
He will also seek acquisition opportunities as well as developing a B2B offering that will leverage Bombora’s proven risk insurance business model and framework.
…the new role provides the opportunity to assist advisers and practices to enhance and lift productivity…
Mounsey says the new role provides the opportunity for him “…to assist advisers and practices to enhance and lift productivity and capitalise on business opportunities in an increasingly complex and challenging financial services environment.”
Handley added that with industry turmoil continuing, there’s real benefit for risk practices to join or align themselves with a specialist advice licensee like Bombora that is well positioned and structured to support their long-term business, succession and growth aspirations.
“Even though conditions are challenging – the opportunities for quality risk advice firms have never been better,” he says.
