A former Hornbuckle sales director has been hired by SSAS provider Rowanmoor Group.

Stewart Dick has been appointed as a regional sales manager for Scotland and Northern Ireland to reinforce the national team.

The bespoke Sipp and Family Pension Trust operator cited his “extensive experience in financial services” of over fifteen years and “a wealth of experience in the pensions sector” in announcing his arrival.

Mr Dick spent 11 years with Hornbuckle, now part of the Embark Group alongside Rowanmoor. He worked in various sales roles, including that of regional sales director for Scotland and Northern Ireland.

There, he said he was responsible for a deliberate refocusing of the firm’s target market, "actively segmenting the adviser market and engaging appropriately" to reduce the risk profile of the business and increase focus on the most profitable areas.

Until April, he worked for PayPlan as head of business development.

He also lists his experience as owner and consultant at Twin Law Consulting, providing business development consultancy, sales training, and coaching services since July.

Matthew Robinson, national sales director at Rowanmoor Group, said: “We are thrilled that Stewart is joining Rowanmoor. With his vast experience and wide network of contacts within Scotland and Northern Ireland, Stewart will be a valuable addition to our Sales team.”
