Career Profile

Andrew has shown a continued passion for financial planning since joining the profession in early 2011. From the early days of supporting advisers in a paraplanning role, to developing processes and managing teams, Andrew now advises clients of Active Chartered Financial Planners in his role as a chartered financial planner.

Andrew covers all aspects of financial planning, specialising in wealth management, with investment planning and retirement planning at the core. As a pension transfer specialist (PTS), Andrew can advise on areas of pension planning, including advice on defined benefit schemes.

Since joining the firm in 2019, Andrew has been instrumental in shaping our central investment strategy and has contributed to the continuous improvement of our systems and processes. With a strong interest in the technology that drives the industry, Andrew supports the team in utilising the tools that enable us to deliver exceptional service to our clients.

Andrew is a strong advocate for (the use of) cash flow modelling, which helps to create simple visual aids that demonstrate what is possible financially, allowing clients to make informed decisions with greater ease.

Hobbies and interests

Andrew and wife Cara are proud parents to daughters Leyla and Florence, which means Andrew’s spare time is often taken up by ‘doing what dads’ and getting the girls from A to B.

A long-term season ticket holder at the Riverside, Andrew has supported the Boro (Middlesbrough FC) through thick and thin. From time to time, he’ll put the boots on to join the Active Chartered Financial Planners’ five-a-side team for a game or two.

Given Andrew’s passion for personal finance, he also shares regular content on his YouTube channel to help bring financial education to a wide audience, with his down to earth humour.
