Meet the Team

Amanda and Aaron continue to invest considerable time and resources in building the right team of people for their business, a team that is not only a pleasure to work with but one that is totally committed to providing exceptional service and advice.

Our Financial Planners have a technical knowledge and expertise that is unsurpassed, in fact many are specialists in their field but importantly, there is a genuine desire to help clients make the right choices, to steer them in the right direction and to provide reassurance along the way. This is what sets us apart from others. There are no targets, no egos but a team of dedicated professionals who strive to be the best at what they do.

To ensure our service standards remain high at all times, our Financial Planners are fully supported by our own strong team of Paraplanners who provide valuable technical support and report writing skills in all areas of financial planning. And last but by no means least, our experienced team of Administrators are responsible for ensuring that all new business is processed smoothly and efficiently, whilst dealing with ongoing administration.
