Focus Financial Partners Names Zinovy Iosovich as Chief Growth Officer for Focus Partners Division

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Focus Financial Partners today announced the appointment of Zinovy Iosovich as Chief Growth Officer of its Focus Partners division, effective immediately.

The addition of Chief Growth Officer to its suite of executive roles reflects Focus’s commitment to sustained, intentional organic growth. Mr. Iosovich will initially prioritize driving organic growth within Focus Partners Wealth before broadening his work with the other Focus Partners firms. He will partner closely with Justin Ferri, Chief Operating Officer of Focus Financial Partners, to ensure growth strategies are operationalized and scalable.

“Focus is on a journey to become the leading fiduciary advice company in the industry. To achieve our ambitious goals, it was important to prioritize a position that strengthens our strategic approach to organic growth and put the right leadership in place to guide us through this important phase of our evolution,” said Michael Nathanson, CEO of Focus Financial Partners. “The creation of a Chief Growth Officer role is a critical step in aligning our teams, driving coordinated organic-growth efforts, and positioning Focus for long-term success. This role helps ensure we stay focused on achieving our vision while navigating the complexities of an evolving marketplace.”

In his new role, Mr. Iosovich will be responsible for strategic organic-growth planning, including developing and executing scalable organic-growth initiatives, identifying new market opportunities, and driving business development across Focus Partners Wealth and the broader Focus Partners division. He will partner closely with leadership teams across the company to align organic-growth strategies with the organization’s overall strategic objectives, oversee the integration of organic-growth-focused initiatives across various business units, and ensure that the company’s expansion efforts are sustainable and aligned with its core values.

Mr. Iosovich previously served as President and Chief Services Officer of The Colony Group before its rebrand to Focus Partners Wealth, where he served as Co-President.

“Zinovy is no stranger to Focus—he’s been with us through various stages of our journey for over a decade. Throughout that time, he has consistently delivered exceptional results, led with purpose, driven us forward, and maintained an unwavering passion for progress that inspires me and everyone around him,” said Adam Birenbaum, President of Focus Financial Partners and CEO of Focus Partners Wealth. “Partnering with Zinovy to continue driving us forward and designing our systematic, scalable, and sustainable growth strategies is both an honor and a privilege. I have no doubt in his ability to lead us through this critical effort.”
