Leading financial advice licensee, Synchron, has today announced the appointment of Jason Milosevski to the role of Victorian State Manager.
Synchron Director Don Trapnell said, “Since the untimely passing of Synchron Director, Paul Riegelhuth, Victoria has been managed in-house by fellow Director, John Prossor and myself, however as we enter a growth phase for Victoria it is now time to pass the baton to a dedicated State Manager.”
Mr Milosevski is a Synchron NextGen graduate and, having attended two NextGen conferences, was identified for the position after senior Synchron executives noted his interactions with fellow delegates. “We are delighted to appoint someone of Jason’s caliber,” Mr Trapnell said. “With more than 12 years’ experience in the life insurance industry, we believe he has the right skills, experience and relationships to help drive Synchron’s business growth in Victoria.”
Mr Milosevski was most recently a popular and respected Victorian Business Development Manager for Zurich and has previously held roles with AMP and AXA. He will be mentored by Synchron Independent Chair, Michael Harrison.
Mr Trapnell said Synchron wants to replicate its success in Western Australia, where the number of advisers under the Synchron umbrella increased from 14 in 2012, to 56 in 2015, following the appointment of West Australian State Manager, Bernie Fernandes. “Our initial goal is to increase our presence in Victoria from 125 authorised representatives to 175 in the next two years.”
Synchron is one of the largest non-institutionally owned financial services licensees by adviser numbers in the country and one of the fastest growing.
