Join us in welcoming new team members and congratulating our newest adviser

To mark the changing seasons, we’re delighted to bring you some exciting updates from the team.

Welcome to our two newest team members!

We’re excited to extend a warm welcome to our two newest team members.

Silje Olsen

Joining us as a paraplanner, Silje has wide expertise in several areas of financial services, including investing, personal taxation, and retirement planning. Having worked in financial planning for almost three years, she’s already helping to support our clients.

When she’s not busy working towards her Level 4 Diploma, Silje enjoys reading, visiting museums, and walking along the Thames or in the Surrey Hills.

Chelle Liennard

An experienced and highly organised administrator, Chelle joins the team as office manager. With a range of financial planning and pension administration qualifications under her belt, she is already getting stuck into supporting our team and our clients.

Outside the office, you can usually find Chelle spending time with friends and family – particularly her spouse and three adult children. She enjoys crafts, reading, and listening to 80s music (Bucks Fizz is a particular favourite).

Please join us in welcoming Silje and Chelle to the team!

Congratulations to Adrien

We’re delighted to announce Adrien is transitioning into a new role as a financial planner.

Many of our current clients have already spoken with Adrien in his capacity as a paraplanner. Following his qualification earlier this year, he is continuing to take on more responsibilities as a financial planner alongside Ray.

So, you may be hearing more from Adrien over the coming months. Be sure to offer your congratulations – or ask him about his latest motor or adventures with his puppy!

Our former financial adviser was retiring and recommended Ray to us. He alleviated the constant worry of where to best invest our savings without too much risk. We’re very pleased with the results over the last 10 years. He explains things in layman's language, which we appreciate, and gives us the confidence we have made the right choices. What more can people expect?

Kathleen

We had pension policies and investments that needed sorting out ready for retirement. We didn't know what to expect from a financial adviser. We assumed that he would simply advise us where to get the best deals. How wrong we were. Ray took us right back to basics. He made us carefully consider what we really wanted to achieve. He has allowed us to start to really enjoy our retirement.

Michael

I needed financial advice about pensions and investments as I approached retirement. My wife was in the same position. Ray Martin worked out a comprehensive plan for putting my pension provision and savings into proper order. He did the same for my wife. He has continued to provide us with advice ever since. Ray is always straightforward, open and proactive.

Laurence

I was approaching retirement and wanting to look into limiting taxation and Inheritance Tax, as well as providing for my wife. Ray provided sound advice to switch from my current arrangement to a Drawdown Pension and ISA investments. I have now retired and have started seeing the benefits of his advice. The returns on my portfolio have increased beyond expectation. Ray performed extremely well.

Demetri

I had sold my house and didn't know how to invest the money. Ray invested very wisely and there has been about a 5% increase every year. He listened to our queries, gave answers that we fully understood and followed any requests. He always had time for us, and never rushed us. We would have been financially at a loss without his help.

Brian

Ray has been advising my wife and me for about 20 years. He is everything one could hope for in a financial adviser: wonderfully enthusiastic, extremely well informed, completely trustworthy and scrupulously observant of the regulatory requirements. He is able to explain complex matters very clearly, and so far, his advice has always been first class.

Oliver

I had money to invest and had no idea how to go about investing it and hopefully making a gain. I have three children and wanted advice about inheritance planning. Ray is very patient, very clear when he explains things, he is very interested in me as a person, totally trustworthy and is an excellent listener. We have never been disappointed! He`s been brilliant.

Rosie

I had just been widowed. Ray sorted out and simplified what was a very complex set of investments into a much less confusing portfolio. I have been extremely happy with everything Ray has advised over the last 12 years. Whilst moving with the times, he has dealt with all aspects of my investments wisely and given me all the guidance and help I have needed.

Pat

As the financial director of a company, I was seeking to get advice on how to plan and invest for retirement. Without a doubt, Ray Martin helped me understand and plan how to fund my retirement. Ray has been with me every step of the way. His advice has been invaluable. I retired and achieved my annual income goal. His continued advice is helping me in the next stage of my life.

Mike

I needed some advice regarding my late mother’s estate. I had also retired and required advice on how to manage my private pension. Ray was extremely helpful, and his advice was very clear and easy to understand. I came away from our initial meeting feeling very relieved and less stressed. We have just had our first yearly review and I was surprised how well my investments had done.

Jane

In the last 10 years, my circumstances have changed with the passage of time. Ray has guided me on how to protect and make my money grow. He listens carefully to my needs and gives clear, concise advice in a professional manner. He and his team are always accessible and patient with my questions and their approach gives me confidence that my finances are securely looked after.
