Get to know George
George is a Chartered Financial Planner who works with families and professional individuals to help create clear and thorough financial plans tailored to their unique goals in life.
He has more than 20 years of experience in financial services, is a Fellow of the Personal Finance Society, and holds both the PFS Advanced Diploma in Financial Planning and the STEP Diploma in Trusts and Estates.
George’s work centres around creating lifetime models of assets and income, alongside providing advice on how to maximise tax allowances and navigate the regulations surrounding UK investments and pensions. His expertise in both building and managing wealth helps clients make informed decisions, feel in control of their finances, and work towards a secure and rewarding future.
Outside of work, George coaches rugby and, when not acting as a taxi service for his increasingly active son, keeps fit by playing cricket and running.
The Financial Conduct Authority does not regulate tax planning, Inheritance Tax and estate planning advice, or advice on trusts.
In the spotlight
What about your job is rewarding/what do you enjoy in your job?
I most enjoy the conversations about future plans and the lifestyle my clients want for themselves and their families. I love exploring what it means for them and then being part of making it happen!
How do you feel you add value for your clients?
I offer years of experience and a reassuring expert by their side. I also challenge my clients to think about what is most important to them, the lifestyle they want, and ultimately how we can structure their finances to support it.
My favourite holiday destination is:
Italy – the lakes, the cities, and the beautiful islands. Still a lot more to see.
