Prior to heading up Lonsec’s advice business, Mr McPherson held a number of roles for MLC Advice Solutions, including head of licensee productivity and development.

“Duncan’s expertise lies in his wide ranging experience and capability in the development and implementation of customer led advice models, stakeholder engagement, leadership, as well as strategy and business development,” Lonsec joint chief executive Nathan McPhee said.

“This appointment of Duncan will position Adviser Network to continue delivering high quality services and advice for our clients,” he said.

Launched in 2011, Adviser Network works with a range of clients, including Mine Wealth and Wellbeing, ESSSuper, Intrust Super, Club Plus Super, Mercy Super, Christian Super, Suncorp, Hostplus, NGS Super, QIEC Super, Club Super and Aon.
