Yorsipp strengthens UK growth strategy with appointment of Strategic Partnerships and Distribution Director
Yorsipp, a specialist provider of bespoke SIPP, SSAS and "At Retirement" pension solutions, has strengthened its Business Development team with the appointment of Mark Randell as Strategic Partnerships and Distribution Director, as the specialist SIPP and SSAS provider continues to expand its presence across the UK.
Mark brings more than 35 years’ experience in the UK financial services industry, including more than 25 years specialising in bespoke pension. He joins Yorsipp with extensive experience across SIPP and SSAS administration, commercial property transactions and complex retirement planning. Over his career, Mark has developed strong relationships with financial advisers, wealth planners and professional introducers throughout the UK.
Mark’s appointment forms part of Yorsipp’s wider growth strategy, building its UK footprint while strengthening the support available to advisers looking for flexible and bespoke pension solutions, and he will work alongside Stephen Gilligan and Sam Davidson.
Yorsipp provides a range of bespoke SIPP and SSAS arrangements designed to accommodate a wide variety of investment and retirement income strategies. Its approach is centred on flexibility and working closely with advisers to find solutions that meet individual client requirements.
Mark said: “I’m delighted to be joining Yorsipp at such an exciting stage of its growth. There is a real opportunity to build on the relationships Yorsipp already has across the UK while developing new strategic partnerships with advisers, DFMs and professional introducers.
What particularly attracted me to Yorsipp is its flexible, bespoke approach. Advisers increasingly need pension solutions that can accommodate different investment strategies and complex client circumstances, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
I’m looking forward to working with Stephen, Sam and the wider team to build on Yorsipp’s strong foundations and support its continued growth across the UK.”
Kirsty Gallagher, Yorsipp’s Managing Director added: “Mark brings a huge amount of experience and knowledge to the team, as well as an excellent understanding of what advisers need from a specialist SIPP and SSAS provider.
We have ambitious plans for Yorsipp and are focused on continuing to build our presence across the UK. It’s very much a team effort, and Mark’s experience will be a valuable addition as we develop new relationships and strengthen existing ones.
“We want to be a trusted partner for advisers, particularly where clients have more complex requirements around commercial property, IHT planning, accumulation and retirement income. Mark will play an important role in helping us achieve that.”
Yorsipp’s continued investment in its Business Development team reflects its ambition to grow its adviser network and build long-term partnerships across the UK.
