“David’s extensive experience and strategic vision are strong assets to the Concourse business,” said Aaron Seurkamp, SVP and President of Protective’s Retirement Division. “We continue to have a strong leadership team in place, and I look forward to seeing how this team continues to build on the momentum established over the past year, helping us do more for our clients and customers.”

Perry assumes the role previously held by Doyle Williams. A longtime veteran of the financial services industry, Williams led Concourse during its launch and was instrumental in helping the firm successfully navigate its first year in the market. Williams moves into a new role with Concourse’s parent company to leverage his expertise and lead the expansion of Protective’s entire marketing organization as Chief Marketing Officer.

As Concourse CEO, Perry’s leadership team includes Libet Anderson, President, Wealth Management for Concourse; Brad Mendenhall, President, Insurance Solutions for Concourse; and Darren Guerrera, Chief Financial Officer for Concourse.

Perry brings a wealth of experience to his new position. Prior to serving as Concourse’s COO, he was Vice President of Corporate Strategy at Protective and played a key role in the consolidation of Protective’s distribution companies, which ultimately became Concourse. Earlier in his career, Perry served as Director of the Finance Department for the State of Alabama and as Chief of Staff to the Governor of Alabama.

He also practiced law for several years with Maynard Cooper & Gale, P.C., advising clients in matters involving mergers and acquisitions, securities, governmental affairs and general litigation. Perry earned his bachelor’s degree in public policy studies from Duke University and his Juris Doctor from Northwestern University.

Concourse offers financial professionals the tools needed to gather, grow and protect client assets through its affiliated entities. It supports more than 450 independent financial professionals nationwide through investment services, financial planning, insurance services and practice management services.

Since its launch, Concourse has experienced success on many fronts.
