ABOUT

ABOUT

I have been in financial services for about 20 years (but seems a lot longer!). I've been lucky enough to work for some great financial institutions such as Legal & General and HSBC, wearing many different hats from advising to broker. Prior to joining Plus my business was contracted to a pension compliance review for one of the high street banks, which lasted for 7 years.

LIKES

    I enjoy hiking, running and getting into the sea when it's not Arctic conditions. If I'm not working I can usually be found in a nook off the coastal path with a book, the dog and flask of tea.

    DISLIKES

    Rudeness, queues, commuting (which is one of the reasons why I love my job), social media when used for anything other than work or seeing nice photos.

    ABOUT

    Studied Modern Languages then worked in Investment Banking dealing with French and Spanish clients, before deciding to retrain as a Financial Adviser. Diploma qualified through the SJP Academy - I went onto to have my own Practice as an Adviser. Paraplanning became a better fit for my family life rather than investing, so I worked as a Paraplanner for two SJP Practices before joining Plus.

    LIKES

    Going to the theatre, eating out, holidays and a bit of gym/squash.

    DISLIKES

    Aubergines - who wants to eat a sponge?

    Frequently asked questions

    Why should I use your Client Servicing Team?

    With the recent introduction of Consumer Duty, servicing your clients is more important now than ever before. Our expert team can ensure that your clients are receiving the best service and that your clients’ records are kept up to date (which adds to your PQS score!).

    Do I have to use a template for your review letters?

    We use Aptus templates to ensure your review letters include the 6 requirements that SJP expect to see in a post review letter. However, if you have a template that you would prefer to use, we are happy to take a look at it for you.

    Will I be tied into a contract?
    No, we won’t tie you in with contracts or retainers and we don’t have a minimum spend. Simply register with us and use us on a pay as you go basis.
    Will you be contacting our clients on our behalf?

    Our team will always let your clients know that they are calling on behalf of the Adviser to avoid confusion. This includes using your email signatures when sending emails.

    Do I have to use your full client servicing service?

    No, we can tailor the service we offer to suit your needs. You can choose as many or as few of the tasks above as suit you.

    What are your turnaround times?

    We will complete all fund switch and withdrawal request within 2 working days. Our SLA’s for post review letters is currently 5 working days, however if you have a letter that needs completing urgently, then please do let us know and we will endeavour to complete this as soon as possible. We will also work through contacting your clients as quickly as possible, however this is on a case by case basis due to the number of clients to contact.

    Do you update CFR’s post meeting?

    Yes, our team will ensure that your clients records are updated with any changes post meeting.
