Like its Wall Street rival Morgan Stanley, Citi sees a path to trillions in client assets in its workplace division.
The latest appointment comes amid Citi's continued overhaul of its executive ranks and wealth business.
Merrill's wealth division boasted about 33,500 net new client relationships year-to-date, according to Q3 earnings.
Merrill Lynch Wealth co-heads Lindsay Hans and Eric Schimpf said Q2 was big for client acquisitions, partially because of money moves after bank collapses.
The moves come as Merrill seeks to integrate more with parent company Bank of America.
