Dartington has appointed Bryan Parkinson, previously of
Barclays, as regional director for the North.
At Barclays, Parkinson was head of private clients for three
years following two years as director of intermediary sales. His
previous roles have included chief executive of Standard Life
Client Management.
In this newly-created role, Parkinson will be based in Leeds, and
will lead the company’s investment directors in the
north; communicating and implementing the company’s business
goals and objectives across regional offices.
“Bryan’s strong strategic awareness will be a key influence in
expanding our client base in the region. We currently have five
offices in the North and maybe more to come in Nottingham and
Newcastle, therefore having a director dedicated to the region
has become a necessity,” said Graham Coxell, executive chairman
of the firm.
Founded in 1990, Rowan Dartington operates across England and the
Isle of Man, and is responsible for client assets in excess
of £1 billion.
