Perth-based financial services firm Plan B Group Holdings has appointed Matt Nile as its new group executive for operations, IT, risk and governance.
Nile brings several years of experience covering operations, IT and risk and advice to the role along with solid enterprise-wide project management skills.
“Matt has an extraordinary track record in our industry and a demonstrated skill in bringing together the mission-critical streams of a growing business in a manner that ensures robust governance while driving organisational performance and efficiencies,” Plan B chief executive Andrew Black said.
Nile’s appointment, set to commence on 9 January, displayed progress toward Plan B’s strategic goals for growth, expansion and development, “despite the challenges of a rapidly changing and at times uncertain regulatory environment”, Black said.
Prior to joining Plan B, Nile worked at BT Financial Group where he was responsible for the risk integration of the Westpac and St George wealth management businesses.
Most recently he was BT head of program management for advice, where he was involved in making sure the business was risk and compliance ready as well as facilitating efficiencies in the advice area.
“My skills and interests are tailor-made for this position at Plan B and I relish the opportunity to be part of a dynamic and exciting growth story,” he said.
“There is real satisfaction in putting plans into action and seeing measurable outcomes, and this role is all about doing just that. It’s great to be working in a company that has such a strong vision for the future.”
