Goldman Sachs Personal Financial Management/United Capital veteran Katie Johnson has joined FiComm Partners as its new president, replacing Kirsten Plonner, the RIA communications agency said Tuesday.
"Plonner will be transitioning from FiComm over the next few months to explore new opportunities," a company spokesperson told ThinkAdvisor. "In the meantime, Kirsten and Katie will be working closely together as Kirsten transitions her role to Katie."
Johnson has nearly 20 years of experience in financial services. She joins FiComm from Goldman Sachs, where, according to her LinkedIn profile, she had been vice president of corporate communications for Goldman Sachs Personal Financial Management, formerly United Capital, since July 2019, when Goldman acquired the firm and changed its name.
Johnson had worked at United Capital since 2006.
As FiComm president, Johnson will be responsible for the firm's "people and client experiences, providing the strategic oversight and direction for all lines of business, as well as leading the agency's nationwide team of marketing and public relations experts," according to the firm.
