A little bit about Oliver
I pride myself on giving clear, straight-talking advice that does away with jargon and gives clients exactly what they need to know to reach their goals.
I am based in the Northeast of England but regularly travel between York and Edinburgh helping clients.

An adviser’s insight
If it’s time for financial advice, I can help you
Coming into a sum of money can be exciting and overwhelming at the same time, especially if it’s sudden or unexpected. And while you’re trying to process all the emotions involved, you’ll probably have to make some important financial decisions as well.
Whether you’ve received an inheritance, a windfall, or a lump sum from work, having an adviser to help guide you and make a sensible plan can take away some of the stress and worry so you can focus on the benefits.
I can help you understand all the different options available to you, taking advantage of any allowances so your money works as tax-efficiently as possible.
I can also help you adjust your financial plans or make completely new ones by showing you how the choices you make today could impact your future.
Together, we can put your money to work in a way that helps you feel confident about the future.
Tax treatment varies according to individual circumstances and is subject to change.

More about me
I've been in the financial services industry since my early 20s and am proud to have helped with thousands of financial plans.
Whether it's saving for your first home, investing for the future or preparing for retirement I can take you through the things you need to think about and make sure that your finances are supporting you to achieve your goals.
People who work with me tell me the thing they appreciate the most is the peace of mind knowing that their plans are on track and they have someone keeping an eye out for anything that could change that.
When I'm not working with clients, you can most often find me in the local markets looking for ingredients, or in my kitchen cooking them up for my partner and our new daughter.
