Financial Adviser DipPFS in Stanley
I enjoy helping clients create a plan for the future, whether that be for retirement, or saving for something shorter term, I can help you along the way offering straight forward, honest advice.
I work with individuals, families ,business owners and professionals to help secure your future, and protect what matters most to you along with taking the stress and complexity out of financial decisions.
Previous to becoming a financial planner I have spent 17 years owning and operating retail outlets throughout the northeast of England alongside investing in property since 2017. I now use this experience to help others who may be unsure on where to go next.
When people think about financial advice, they often think about investments. But financial advice can support a much wider range of decisions, helping you plan confidently for the future and make the most of the opportunities available to you.
New research commissioned by Quilter and conducted by Boring Money found that many people understand how advisers like me can help with investments, but are less aware of the wider support available through professional financial planning.

Karl is located in Stanley and offers expert financial advice to suit your needs.
I have over 17 years experience of being self employed within the sales and retail Industry primarily within the home furnishings sector, operating retail outlets throughout the northeast. Pension and investment planning can sometimes be pushed aside, along with protection.
I have also been in property investment since 2017, I understand the challenges that can come along with both of these. Within my time in retail I always enjoyed the time spent with customers on a day to day basis and I now get to do that daily helping people with any financial matters they may have.
I have always had a passion for finance and spent a lot of time educating myself to make sure I was preparing for the future. I now use that experience to help others who may be unsure on where to go next
Out side of work me and my partner spend a lot of time on the beautiful Northumberland coastline with our little dog Bailey, usually shouting for him to come back or to stop rolling in the sand.
I am also a big fan of Newcastle united which comes with its own set of challenges.
