Woodley said: “Jodie’s leadership of the business on a day-to-day basis will allow me to take on a new role as executive chair, a position that enables me to focus more time on mentoring lead advisers.
“Helping advisers build great business that tangibly enriches the lives of clients is at the heart of what we do, and we are well-positioned to best deliver value-driven advice to clients through our client-centric, goals-based advice model. I am excited to take on this new role and confident I leave the group chief executive role in the very capable hands of Jodie, who will help build the next part of our journey as a national advisory and wealth firm.”
