Perpetual Private has announced the appointment of two new Lead Partners, with Chemere Brown joining as Lead Partner, Victoria, for the group’s Private Client business, and Matthew Le Belenger joining as Lead Partner for the National Medical segment.

Chemere joins Perpetual with more than 18 years’ experience in the financial services industry, having previously held senior roles at IOOF, National Australia Bank and MLC.

Managing Partner Private Clients, Andrew Baker, recognised the significance of Chemere’s appointment for the business.

“Chemere is a great addition to our Private Clients team, which has continued to see strong growth over the past decade.

“Her leadership capabilities and industry experience, together with her clear commitment to providing quality outcomes for clients, ensures our Private Clients team in Victoria, as well as the broader Perpetual Private business, will continue to strengthen.”

The Private Clients team provide holistic financial and wealth management services to high-net-worth investors including investment management and advisory, accounting and tax advisory, philanthropy, trustee services and private banking.

Chemere started with the business on July 11 and will also be part of the Perpetual Private Leadership Team.

Mr Baker also announced the appointment of Matthew Le Belenger as Lead Partner, National Medical segment.

“Matt has a successful track record over close to 20 years in banking and finance having worked across a number of business groups at Westpac, BT Financial Group and MetLife in Australia and in the Middle East including Retail, Private Wealth, Advice, Group Insurance, Medical Insurance and Holistic Advice.

“Matt brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to the role and I have no doubt he will continue to help grow our medical segment,” said Mr Baker.

Perpetual has also announced Fotini Mastrogianni as the National Manager, Trustee Services. Fotini has held roles for more than 25 years across banking, professional and trustee services. The newly created role within Perpetual Private will focus on growing the Trusts, Estates and Lifestyle Assist segment within the business.
