“Adding a leader of Noreen’s stature to our Board will pay dividends for our firm for years to come. Noreen is a renowned visionary and at the forefront of intuitive advisor-facing technology and asset management platforms,” said Commonwealth CEO Wayne Bloom. “I’ve known and admired her for many years as a respected member of the wealth management community. Noreen has a well-earned reputation as a collaborative, creative, and inspirational leader. She is the right voice at the right time to round out our Board.”

Beaman is a well-known industry executive with a proven track record of building and scaling successful organizations from the ground up while developing inclusive work cultures. She is currently the vice chair of the board of directors for Orion Advisor Solutions, an innovative wealth management provider of integrated and fully customizable technology solutions for advisors. She is also chair of the board for Brinker Capital Destinations Funds Trust, a multimanager mutual fund family with more than $13 billion in assets under management¹. Until recently, Noreen served as president of Orion Advisor Solutions and spearheaded a post-merger integration with Brinker Capital.

“Commonwealth knows that standing still in this dynamic business is not an option,” said Beaman. “The firm listens to its advisors, and it partners with them to provide the tools and resources they need to succeed at a high level. The respect they show their affiliated advisors has resulted in extreme loyalty to the firm. I am thrilled to be associated with such a firm and honored to join a distinguished group of industry thought leaders on the Board. I look forward to working together to ensure that Commonwealth continues to evolve and remains a forward-looking partner for its incredible advisors.”

The Commonwealth Advisory Board was created to advise the firm on important initiatives, major projects, and critical issues. For more information on the Board and its members, visit our website.
