Chartered MCSI
A true financial partnership based on trust, understanding and integrity.
About
My commitment to you is to take the time to listen to your concerns and understand your financial priorities which will enable us to work together in order to design, build and implement an effective financial plan. This plan will be focused on your own circumstances and will structure your finances in the most appropriate manner to help meet your short, medium and long term objectives.
Implementing a financial plan alone is never enough unless it is reviewed on a regular basis. For example, changes in your personal circumstances or in financial legislation could mean that an element of restructuring is required to keep your objectives on track and we will discuss these factors throughout the course of our financial relationship.
I began my career in financial services in 1997 when I joined Coutts & Co.
Over the course of my 15 year career with Coutts, I took great pride in providing the highest possible standards of personal service to my clients. A key learning from my time at Coutts was the importance of a service ethic when looking after the financial needs of private individuals. I have chosen to place this service ethic at the heart of my own financial services business and this is vital in helping me form long term relationships built on understanding and trust.
At Coutts, I was a Director responsible for providing a full range of wealth management advice to a small portfolio of highly demanding clients with a multitude of needs. Coutts provided me with an excellent opportunity to develop my career and expertise in the wealth management sector.
In 2012, I was invited to join St. James's Place with a view to establishing my own wealth management business and I was delighted to accept. This opportunity has provided me with a strong platform to build a successful business based on providing the best possible advice whilst being supported by a company that shares my belief in putting the needs of the client first.
My industry experience is complemented professionally by having completed the Financial Planning Certificate (FPC), the Certificate of Mortgage Advice and Practice (CeMAP) as well as gaining a distinction in the Private Client Investment Advice & Management (PCIAM) which has led to me being a Chartered Member of the Chartered Institute for Securities and Investment. I am also a member of the Personal Finance Society.
On a personal level, I have been married to Hannah since 2009 and we have a son, Edward, who was born in 2012 and a daughter Ivy, born in 2016. I have many sporting interests and enjoy worldwide travel.
