Nick Austin has been promoted from Manager of Retirement Plan Services to the position of Retirement Plan Consultant at intellicents.

“Nick’s advancement within our organization has been ideal in preparing him for this new role,” said Brad Arends, CEO of intellicents. “Nick started out in the 401(k) recordkeeping division of our former sister company, and then became a retirement plan Relationship Manager for our fiduciary investment advisory division at intellicents. From there he managed that department, and had responsibilities for many of our largest clients. Nick is very bright, is very competent with plan sponsor investment committees, and is exceptional delivering participant educational group meetings. In addition, he just organized and spearheaded 3,000 participant one-on-one meetings over a six week period for the roll-out of custom target date funds for a heavy manufacturer client in the Midwest, which was tremendously successful. In effect, Nick has been in a consulting role for some time now.”

“I have been working toward this opportunity in my career path at intellicent,” commented Austin. “intellicents gave me the opportunity to learn about what makes a successful 401(k) from the ground floor up. Over the past 18 months they also had me play a role in numerous sales finalist presentations, which was just invaluable in my development. I am fortunate to work for a progressive company that has a history of developing and nurturing talent from within.”
