Matthew Reed from the Howden Group has been appointed as Head of Retail Sales.  Matthew replaces David Perry who has moved to Cullum Capital Ventures as Sales and Marketing Director.

Retail Project Director Alan McEwan has been promoted to the newly created position of Regional Managing Director for Scotland reflecting ambitious plans to develop Towergate’s broker proposition north of the border.
