MLC Life Insurance is aiming to build its partnership credentials with licensees and advisers following four new external hires to its retail distribution team.

Angela Reinmouth joins as National Licensee Manager with responsibility for managing key licensee accounts across the country working closely with Dinah Munro to extend coverage across national and state-based licensee firms. Ms Munro is National Licensee Manager and Strategic Account Manager Insurance, according to her LinkedIn account.

Ms Reinmouth most recently completed a contract role with AIA and has also worked previously for Zurich and its OnePath Life business.

Jason Perrotto takes up the role of Adviser Partnership Manager NSW, joining from Asteron Life while Kirsten Galvin and Arthur Tsimbouris start as Adviser Partnership Manager Victoria.

Ms Galvin was most recently a life/risk business development manager with OnePath/Zurich and Mr Arthur Tsimbouris a platform business development manager ANZ OnePath/IOOF.

“We are keen to hit the ground running [this year] as we build on our partnership credentials,” GM of Retail Distribution Partnerships Michael Downey said.

“They are all highly experienced insurance industry professionals with a passion for improving our partnerships with advisers and licensees and will strengthen our team immensely.”
