Financial confidence 

We give you confidence in your financial future by working with you to devise bespoke, complete, adaptable financial strategies that support your personal goals and life choices going forward. This was recognised when Amanda was named Best Woman in Financial Services in the national Best Business Women Awards 2020 and a VouchedFor Top Advisor 2021-2022.

Pensions specialists 

We specialise in working with senior managers and professionals, particularly in the areas of Retirement Planning, Investment Planning and Estate Planning. This means that we are able to offer solutions for complex situations. 

We are Pensions experts and can provide advice for all types of pensions. If you feel mystified by your pension, rest assured that you are not alone! Even senior financial managers often confess they don't really understand their pension options – until they work with us. 

The value of an investment with St. James's Place will be directly linked to the performance of the funds you select and the value can therefore go down as well as up. You may get back less than you invested.

Whether you have something requiring immediate attention, or you want to develop an effective plan for the medium to long-term, our approach is the same, and is based on these core values: 

  • Long-term partnership
  • Integrity 
  • Trust 
  • Intelligent solutions 
  • Service excellence
