Global fintech Broadridge Financial Solutions has appointed Allen Wienberg as its new Chief Growth and Strategy Officer – a newly created role at the firm, with a remit to increase the profitability and competitiveness of the business.

He will also help identify and evaluate new markets and product opportunities, ensuring the company’s strategy remains aligned with the industry’s rapidly changing landscape. Weinberg will join Broadridge’s Executive Leadership Team and report directly to Broadridge Chief Executive Officer Tim Gokey.

Weinberg joins Broadridge from McKinsey & Company where he served as a Senior Partner. His move will see German Soto Sanche, currently serving as Chief Strategy Officer, become Chief Product and Enterprise Platform Officer.
