The move comes following Aegon’s announcement earlier today that Jim Reeve, former CEO of Positive Solutions, had left to pursue alternative opportunities within the financial services sector.
Coleman joined Positive Solutions in March 2011 in the newly created role of commercial director. Peter is a former director of Burns-Anderson and has considerable experience within the financial services sector of delivering profitable business growth according to the company.
His immediate objectives are to work with James McCourt, risk and compliance director, to complete Positive Solutions' final preparations for RDR transition and to identify further opportunities to grow the business.
Patrick Gale, AEGON's executive chairman of distribution, said: "I would like to thank Jim for his significant contribution to Positive Solutions over the last four and a half years and I wish him well in his future career.
"Positive Solutions must now focus on delivering profitable growth in the run up to RDR and beyond. Peter and James's knowledge of the business and their track record make them an ideal team to lead the firm to future success."
