Lonsec research names executive director

Lonsec has named Lorraine Robinson as the new executive director of Lonsec Research. She will start in December after eight years with Evans & Partners.

Robinson was most recently the COO of Evans Dixon Corporate & Institutional, before that head of research.

An experienced research practitioner with strong commercial acumen, Robinson has an intimate understanding of what users need to support their investment decisions, and how best to deliver Lonsec's research in a way that meets the evolving needs of wealth creators.

"The speed of growth at Lonsec continues to necessitate the addition of quality people to our team," said Lonsec CEO Charlie Haynes.

"On the back of being named 'Research House of the Year' in Money Management's Rate the Raters survey for the fourth year in a row, we are excited to have Lorraine join us and for the continued depth of experience within the organisation which is the bedrock of Lonsec's growth."
