Emma Excels into Financial Planning Role

A Newcastle-based wealth management firm is moving forward with a senior promotion and a raft of new appointments as it continues to grow.

Robson Laidler Wealth has seen a 14% increase in turnover in its last financial year and is set to growth by a further 10% this year.

With more than 13 years’ experience in the financial sector, the firm’s compliance and operations manager Emma Purvis, 39 from South Shields has now made the move to a financial planner role having completed a Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning with the Chartered Insurance Institute.

Emma Purvis said: “I am delighted to announce that I am making the leap from operations & compliance manager to financial planner. After almost 13 years of working ‘behind the scenes’ in compliance and paraplanning roles, I now have the knowledge, experience and professional qualification to confidently assist our clients in meeting their objectives.

“Not only are Robson Laidler Wealth passionate about helping clients to plan and achieve their financial goals, but are also passionate about helping staff to develop and achieve their own goals - and I’ve done just that.

“I’m looking forward to building some great relationships and I'm proud to be working with a team who put their clients at the core of their service.”

Robson Laidler Wealth has also appointed Lydia Sutton and Jennifer Gilroy as new administrators, who will work in supporting both advisers and clients, bringing the team’s total headcount to seven.

Robson Laidler Wealth director, chartered financial planner Amanda Cowie said: “This is a very exciting time for Robson Laidler Wealth, as we celebrate Emma’s success to a financial planner role and welcome two new members of staff to our rapidly growing team. I have no doubts that these new positions will only help to accelerate our growth plans and I look forward to seeing their outstanding customer service skills in action while they help our clients reach their financial goals.”

Robson Laidler Wealth was established in 2005 to offer a complementary service to Robson Laidler Accountants and Business Advisors’ accountancy and tax clients.  The firm is led by husband and wife team Neil and Amanda Cowie, both Chartered Financial Planners, who together have more than 50 years’ experience in financial services.
