`When you start employment, naturally you would expect to be offered, or negotiate on, a package of benefits. But with no employer to rely on, the responsibility to ensure you have everything in place, starts and ends with you. So, if you’re not investing the time in yourself, as the most important asset of your business, why not?
When you’re just on your feet, with a demanding schedule and need to build your practice, it can feel like entirely the wrong time to throw into the equation financial planning and not as immediately necessary as onboarding an Accountant.
However, putting in place a financial plan at the start of your career, is in fact the best time to. It helps you build structure, clarity and efficiency, and maximises value, ensuring the effort you put in throughout your career, keeps you on track and helps you achieve your future goals.
Are you ticking all of the boxes?

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.
Working with a financial adviser on your plan, extracts even more value: providing accountability, a point of contact for investment planning and dealing with market noise, and access to knowledge to improve tax-efficiency and keep up-to-date with the ever-changing financial landscape.
So, book your no obligation, 15-minute financial health check, and we can begin structuring your finances, to support you in achieving your personal and professional goals. Making sure you’re running your practice as efficiently and effectively as possible.
