The Marlborough Group has appointed Richard Goodall to its board as Director of Strategy and Business Development to help capitalise on market opportunities and drive continued growth.

Goodall, who has over 30 years’ financial services experience, joins from Parmenion, where he was Distribution and Marketing Director. Previously he held senior roles with SEI and Ascentric.
 
The Marlborough Group includes UK-authorised and offshore fund management companies; an investment management business providing discretionary fund management services; and a fund services business, providing Authorised Corporate Director (ACD) and fund hosting services.
 
Wayne Green, Director of Marlborough Group, says: “We are delighted that Richard has been able to join us. His role will be to help us maintain the strong growth trajectory of the Marlborough Group, which has almost tripled assets under management over the past five years to more than GBP11.5 billion.”
 
“He will do that by using his extensive market knowledge and experience to further expand the range and distribution of our products and services. In particular, he will focus on the strategic opportunities being created through shifting market dynamics and aligning these to support further growth across the Marlborough Group.”
 
Goodall says: “Each of the companies in the Marlborough Group already has the key fundamentals in place: a pervasive ‘client-first’ culture, a commitment to supporting positive investor outcomes through the provision of first-class products and services and, finally, a high level of expertise.”
 
“This is what attracted me and has driven growth to date, and my role will be to ensure that our momentum continues by helping to develop our offerings across the group and by exploring new opportunities.”
