Our Team
With over a combined 180 years experience as advisers, paraplanners and administrators, our team brings together a range of complementary skills and disciplines. As a result we are uniquely placed to observe any industry trends, changes to processes or legislation whilst ensuring that our services remain compliant.
In the same building as us, we also have an advice arm (a Chartered IFA run by Ray Galbally - see below), but at no time are there any conflicts of interest and we believe the fact that we have a close in-house relationship with an IFA gives us an extra edge as we understand the demands of IFAs and their clients.
We aim to remain at least one step head of the industry standard actively encouraging staff to gain further qualifications and engage in continued personal development (CPD).
Link up with our team today and you will not look back.
