MAC Group have announced the exciting promotion of Ciaran Broad and Tom Wilson to Senior Independent Financial Adviser’s to further strengthen the MAC Financial senior team.
Jon McGowan, Group CEO explained “We are incredibly pleased to announce the promotion of Ciaran and Tom as Senior IFA’s. Both have been integral parts of the team during the successful integration of the recent ‘Island Financial Solutions’ client acquisition and our ongoing expansion. Ciaran and Tom continue to support the newly promoted Associate Directors and the rest of the team at MAC to deliver the highest standards of service for all of our clients.”
Joining MAC in 2013, Ciaran has gained extensive experience having worked and progressed within the Financial Services sector for more than 15 years. Always looking to expand his knowledge to benefit both his Corporate and Private clients, Ciaran is working towards gaining Chartered Financial Planner status.
Tom started his professional career in the Aeronautical sphere, however during this time his interests in the financial market prompted a career change to the Financial Services Industry. This was solidified when Tom won the Insurance Institute of the Isle of Man’s Mike Henthorn Young Achiever’s Award in 2018 and FPIBA Prize the following year. Tom joined MAC Financial as an Adviser in 2018 and quickly advanced through progressively more responsible positions in both Corporate and Independent financial advice roles.
Always making sure to be at the forefront of providing impeccable service, the MAC offices are also undergoing a transformation to create a brand new area with more meeting spaces to welcome clients and improved office space for staff, which will be revealed in the near future.
Nigel Gregg, Group Managing Director adds “Tom and Ciaran bring a wealth of experience to the Senior team, we are excited about their new role within the Company and about the further planned changes here at MAC. With focus now firmly on ensuring the high level of service and professionalism is not only maintained but exceeded, we continue to strive for excellence through professional practice with these new appointments, which will also be reflected within our new office space.”
