By Elizabeth Fry

Bravura Solutions has hired Greg Johnson to lead the global product team as the business continues to streamline processes and simplify the experience for customers.

In his role, Johnson will focus on creating repeatable, scalable and easily integrated solutions for the technology provider with more than US$5 trillion in funds under administration.

He will collaborate closely with clients to develop and streamline technology and business processes to improve efficiency and enhance customer experience through digital delivery.

Johnson joins from Nano Digital Home Loans, where he was most recently a B2B group executive.

Before that, he held senior roles at AMP, TAL Limited and Challenger

He was formerly the general manager of marketing and retail product at TAL and the general manager of growth at Challenger.

In that role, he was responsible for the company's underlying growth strategy in the annuities and life business units, including its group portfolio and mergers and acquisitions strategy.

Earlier, he worked at the Commonwealth Bank of Australia in both group and retail banking businesses.

Andrew Russell, chief executive of the wealth management, superannuation, and funds administration technology provider, said Johnson's appointment is a crucial step in the firm's journey to become a product-centric organisation, unifying its global resources and creating a clear roadmap for product innovation.

"With extensive financial services experience, Greg will be a great addition to the team and will work closely with our global customers to better understand their pain points and how Bravura products can better meet their strategic goals in the wealth management and funds administration space," he said.

"Our clients are looking to us to help them drive down costs, reduce complexity and increase efficiencies, and I'm confident that Greg will help us achieve these aims in a way that resonates with clients and helps increase our footprint in key markets across the globe."

Johnson said: "Bravura has an expansive reach and scale across its suite of solutions and a huge opportunity to build on its rich history and capability to help our clients become more efficient, streamlined and ultimately more profitable. I'm looking forward to working with clients on our product innovation plans and helping them innovate in some of the most tightly regulated industries in the global markets in which we operate."

This follows last month's hire of Shezad Okhai as chief commercial officer.
