RWC Partners has boosted its UK wholesale distribution team with two hires.
Simon Rogers has joined to cover strategic partners and relationships in the southeast of England, and Georgia-Rae Fry (pictured) has become national sales manager. Both report to head of European distribution Gary Tuffield.
Rogers, who has more than 20 years’ asset management experience, joins from Artemis Fund Managers where he was head of sales for southeast, East Anglia, Midlands, Isle of Man, North Ireland and South Africa. Prior to that, he was regional sales manager for London and southeast at Artemis, and an assistant portfolio manager at Singer & Friedlander Portfolio Management.
At RWC, Rogers will focus on national advisory businesses, network service providers, platforms and managing regional clients.
Fry joins from Seven Investment Management where she spent five years, most recently as business development manager for the southeast. At RWC she will support distribution to the UK advisory market, working with the regional sales managers.
