The Adviser Platform (TAP) has added two new team members, Taz Alnahas as Key Account Manager and Meryll Villaver as Client Engagement Manager.

This expansion comes on the heels of TAP's growth since the start of the year, driven by increasing demand from financial advisers seeking to streamline and simplify their businesses.

To meet this growing demand and ensure continued excellence in service, TAP has strengthened its team by making these appointments.

"Taz and Meryll join us at an exciting time in our journey,"TAP managing director Ryan Edwards said. "Our rapid growth is a testament to the value we bring to financial advisers. With their expertise and passion for supporting adviser businesses, they will play a pivotal role in ensuring we continue to deliver exceptional support and resources to our expanding member base."

Alnahas will focus on deepening relationships with existing members, providing tailored training and support to help them maximise the benefits of TAP's platform. His extensive experience in the insurance industry will enable him to provide invaluable insights and guidance to advisers.

He spent more than seven years at Partners Life and recently did a short shift at Auto Finance Direct as brand development manager.

Villaver will be the first point of contact for new and prospective members. Her expertise in client relationship management will ensure that advisers receive the support and resources they need to thrive.

She does not come from a financial services background, and most recently was an account manager at Cloudstaff. Before that she was Sales Engineer Channel Sales Manager for a division of LG Electronics in the Philippines.

"We’re committed to helping financial advisers succeed, and these appointments will enable us to provide even more comprehensive support and resources to our members," Edwards said.
