Link Group has appointed Rebel Jones as general manager for partnerships, Asia in its Retirement and Superannuation Solutions (RSS) business in Hong Kong.
Last month, Link announced it had agreed to a partnership with HSBC to bring its RSS business to the Hong Kong pension market. This would see it deliver digital administration and value-added services to HSBC’s Occupational Retirement Scheme Ordinance clients.
It had now appointed Jones to the business who would have end-to-end accountability for business growth and be responsible for leading strategic business development across Government, industry, retail and corporate pension clients in Asia. She would also join the executive leadership team.
Having worked in Australia, Hong Kong and the UK, she joined Link from Ernst & Young Hong Kong where she specialised in technology transformation and delivery.
Dee McGrath, chief executive of RSS at Link Group, said: “We are thrilled to have Rebel on the ground in Hong Kong to help our team deliver global best practice retirement solutions through our technology platform and digital services.
“She is a great addition to our leadership team and will play a significant role in delivering on our strategic plan for the region, while also supporting the overall priorities of our business and assuming responsibility for developing all client relationships in Hong Kong and Asia.”
Jones added: “This role is a natural extension of my expertise and allows me to combine my technology expertise with a thorough knowledge of the Hong Kong pension market.”
