Wealth and investment management group Kingswood has appointed Vinoy Nursiah as chief financial officer and Bryan Parkinson as head of wealth planning.
Kingswood Group CEO, David Lawrence, said both appointments support Kingswood’s ambition to be a leading provider of wealth management services in the UK and internationally.
Additionally, the appointments seek to enhance the “already strong leadership capability that exists across our executive team as we prepare for our next phase of growth”.
Nursiah was most recently CFO at CSC Global Financial Markets, a provider of specialised administration services.
In this role, Nursiah built a new global finance team, operating model and platform to support 30 per cent annual growth, due diligence, and swift integration of three acquisitions.
Prior to that, he was Intertrust Group director of finance and SFM Europe group finance director.
“I have been impressed by the strong track record in acquiring and then deeply integrating high quality IFA businesses at Kingswood, and its clear plans for organic and inorganic forward growth,” Nursiah said.
Meanwhile, Parkinson has experience in leading financial advisory businesses and is “perfectly placed” to lead Kingswood’s growing number of financial advisers across the UK.
His appointment forms part of the establishment of a team of regional directors who will report to Parkinson.
Parkinson was most recently managing director of financial planning at Punter Southall Aspire but, before this, he led the financial planning business of AJ Gallagher and has also held executive roles at Standard Life and Barclays Wealth.
