The financial services company has added more people to its revamped financial planning business.

Challenger's financial planning division has hired three people to its operations as it finalises the revamped advice business.

The new hires include Sara Nathan as manager, operations and assurance, Pas Bueti as head of advice support services and Lily Roche as business program manager.

Nathan will be responsible for Challenger's compliance system. She previously worked for AMP Financial Planning.

Bueti joins Challenger from AMP Financial Planning. In her new job she will be responsible for the investment research and paraplanning division.

 
 

Roche previously worked for BT Financial Group and Westpac's financial planning division. At Challenger, she will project manage the different business units of the firm's advice practice.

In August, Challenger revamped its financial planning division, separating its Solar Wrap service from Genesys Wealth Advisers. The Solar business now operates alongside the Challenger-owned Synergy platform.

Four new people were hired to the firm's distribution team as a result of the new structure.
