From September, Dom will be appointed managing director of Lifetime Connect and will also serve on the board of 360 Dotnet.
Dom Scott recently left Alexander Hall Associates/Foxtons after 18 years, having been the managing director for the last seven years.
Steve Fryett was a founder of Intrinsic, the predecessor to Quilter Financial Planning, working for the business from 2005 until 2019 before joining Lifetime, in August 2019, as managing director of Lifetime Connect, Quilter’s largest appointed representative firm with circa £1.4bn of clients’ assets under advice.
Lifetime Connect's CEO, Paul Merrigan, said: “I’ve worked with Steve for many years, and we’ve made great progress in driving Lifetime Connect forward during difficult times. We wish him well and look forward to continuing to work with him as we strengthen our strategic partnership with Quilter.
“I’m also excited to welcome Dom Scott into the business. Dom’s a leading figure in the mortgage and protection industry who will help ensure we continue our growth journey.”
Dom Scott commented: “I’m excited to be joining the Lifetime Group and play an integral role in such a dynamic, forward-thinking business. I’ve known Paul Merrigan and Steve Fryett for many years and I’m looking forward to delivering our ambitious growth plans alongside a first-class management team, who are committed to delivering excellent service standards across mortgages, protection, and financial planning. Joining the board of 360 Dotnet, who transacted £37bn of lending in 2021, will ensure these growth aspirations are underpinned by market leading technology solutions."
Steve Fryett added: “I have really enjoyed the last three years working closely with Paul and the management team at Lifetime Connect as well as the advisers and business principals of the Connect members. Navigating the business through the pandemic and the various lockdowns that followed has been challenging, but we continued to grow, and the business is in a strong position on which to build. I know I leave Connect in safe hands with the appointment of Dom Scott.
“I’m looking forward to getting started with QFP and working with the management team to create an environment where advisers can thrive. Lifetime Connect is an important part of this plan and I look forward to continuing to build the strategic relationship between the two companies.”
