Broadstone has appointed industry veteran Richard Sweetman to be a senior consultant in its employee benefits consulting division.
Sweetman has worked at Mercer and then Willis Towers Watson for 30 years advising clients on DC pensions, employee benefits and financial wellbeing.
He has worked across a range of defined contribution pension arrangements including large complex trust-based schemes, master-trusts and group personal pensions with experience in proposition development and business development.
