Mary-Anne is currently chief operating officer at Openwork, a position she has held since joining the business in August 2010. She will assume the role of CEO with immediate effect.
Prior to joining Openwork she worked at Fidelity International, where she was head of customer services & strategic alliances, responsible for operational and technology management of Fidelity’s key UK strategic business partners.
Mary-Anne has also held senior roles in companies including Amvescap, Perpetual and Deloitte, where she spent 12 years, latterly as group director, financial services.
In her new role Mary-Anne will assume responsibility for progressing Openwork’s proposition strategy, under which network advisers have the choice of operating a range of models, from single-tie to whole of market.
Openwork’s recent financial restructuring enables the network to execute this strategy, while funding its ambitious growth plans and securing greater value for all shareholders, including its owner-advisers.
Mary-Anne takes over the role of CEO from Martin Davis, who recently left the business to assume a position outside the distribution sector.
