In a statement, the aggregator revealed it had recently appointed Jaime Vogel to the newly-created role of chief technology officer.
Mr Vogel comes with a wealth of experience, having previously held a role at the Commonwealth Bank where he was responsible for the CommSec Wholesale and Advisory Services systems and infrastructure.
AFG founding director Malcolm Watkins said the new role represents a recognition of generational change and the shift to mobile computing which is transforming the way that consumers do business.
“Jaime has extensive experience developing, managing, and implementing critical systems for some of Australia’s largest financial institutions,” he said.
Mr Vogel said he was pleased to be associated with such a strong company.
“AFG is renowned for delivering cutting-edge technology, and it will be exciting to help drive this process,” he said. “Customers are increasingly choosing to interact with brokers online and via social media, and AFG has a clear vision for the direction we need to take to support our brokers and retain a market-beating position.”
