Synovus has hired a 10-year veteran of Truxton Trust to lead a new group catering to ultra-high net worth families.

Jamie Nicholson comes to Synovus, the parent of The Bank of Nashville, as senior vice president and lead family office advisor of the Family Asset Management office at its 1033 Demonbreun St. offices. Nicholson had been with Truxton since 2007, when that company still went by Nashville Bank & Trust, and was named a senior VP in 2011.
