Aon Hewitt Wealth Management, the Australian financial planner network, has lured a new head of product development from a rival and made two internal appointments.

Prue Petinsky assumes responsibility for the development of the Aon Master Trust, confirmed Aon in a statement. She was previously head of product management for the ASGARD platform at BT Financial Group, and has 10 years experience in financial services.

Aon Hewitt also made two internal promotions in its advice business, with Robert Olney promoted to head of practice solutions and Jeremy Lubrano promoted to head of alliances.

Olney is responsible for driving the strategic agenda and deepening the company's relationship with its financial advisors, while Lubrano will work with the company's alliance partners.
