Discretionary fund manager Aberdeen Standard Capital (ASC) has appointed a senior business development manager for its Leeds office.
Tim Coverdale (pictured) joins after 11 years with Seven Investment Management where he led the business development team, working with financial advisers in the north of England and Scotland.
He will perform a similar role at ASC, developing and managing intermediary and introducer relationships throughout the north of England. He will report to ASC head of intermediary business development Jim Stacey.
Before joining 7IM, Coverdale was a client relationship director at Scottish Widows and prior to that, worked at US-based investment and insurance company The Hartford, heading up its strategy for UK banks and building societies.
Aberdeen Standard Capital chief executive Richard Charnock said Coverdale had “built up a respected reputation locally which will support our growth plans”.
“His extensive experience in providing investment solutions to clients will be invaluable in elevating ASC’s client footprint and reputation across the area,” he added.
Coverdale said: “This year will undoubtedly bring more opportunities for ASC and I’m looking forward to harnessing these by drawing on my experience and connections in the wealth management sector.”
