Adam Hines has been appointed GM NSW for Gibbscorp/Total Capital Management (TCM) Group following the merger of the two businesses earlier this year.

Mr Hines has worked at OAMPS, Willis, Westpac and Deutsche Bank. He will be based in Newcastle and is tasked with growing the state operation.

“With TCM already having a client base in financial planning and accounting, it makes sense to further our offering in the insurance space,” Group MD Bryan Leibbrandt said.

Gibbscorp is Insurance Advisernet Australia’s largest corporate authorised representative. It is based in Perth but set up a general insurance operation in NSW following the tie-up with Newcastle-based financial planning group TCM.
