Complexity Made Clear
Planning Made Personal
Who We Work With
We work with all individuals, families & businesses provided we meet two simple criteria :
We can offer genuine value to you & your family.
We get along, and the relationship feels like a natural fit.
Although we deal with clients in all circumstances, we often find that many of those we work with tend to fall into specific categories.
-
You’ve built something solid, planned it carefully, managed every moving part. But when it comes to your own life and finances, has that same clarity carried through?
We meet plenty of business owners with detailed plans for their company, but no joined-up strategy for life beyond work. It’s not about lacking drive, it’s about never having the right kind of support.
That’s where we come in. We help you apply the same structure and decision-making you’ve used in business to your personal finances. We build a clear, realistic plan for your future, at home, work, and beyond.
We also understand that a business isn’t just numbers on a page. It’s years of graft, risk, and personal sacrifice. Whether you’re selling, stepping back, or passing it on, we help you navigate the financial and emotional side of that transition with care and clarity.
-
You’ve built a successful career, worked hard, earned well, and planned your path with care. But do you have the same clarity around your personal finances?
From directors and senior execs to vets and lawyers, many professionals know where their career is heading, but lack a joined-up plan for life beyond the role.
That’s where we come in. We build one clear financial strategy tailored to your future, applying the same skills that shaped your career: logic, structure, and sound decision-making.
Whether you’re securing your lifestyle, planning your next chapter, or building for your family’s future, we help you make it all count.
-
You’ve worked hard, built wealth, and planned carefully. But turning high-level numbers into the retirement you’ve imagined isn’t always straightforward.
We work with retirees who’ve built strong financial foundations, pensions in place, reassuring spreadsheets, and a lifetime of effort behind them. But now comes the real question: what does retirement actually look like for you?
You might want help shaping your lifestyle, supporting family, or simply understanding how much is “enough”, not just on paper, but in real life.
We know retirement isn’t always a smooth transition. When your career ends, so can a part of your identity. That shift can be emotionally complex.
We help you navigate not just the financial, but the emotional as well. Because it’s not about what you’re retiring from. It’s about what you’re retiring to.
-
Contracting gives you freedom, flexibility, and control, but IR35 rules have made it harder to protect that independence.
We work with professionals who’ve built careers through limited companies and inside IR35 contracts, often juggling multiple clients and deadlines. But with shifting rules, corporate indecision, and murky tax legislation, even experienced contractors face uncertainty.
We understand how IR35 works in practice, not just on paper. We help you structure your finances, maintain stability, and build a clear plan for long-term success.
Whether you’re inside or outside IR35, we’ll help you make the most of your current contracts while working towards financial freedom for you and your family.
We help turn complex rules, into a clear plan.
-
Farming isn’t just a business, it’s a way of life.
We understand that. Both directors Josh & Andrew live in Nidderdale, and Josh has close family ties to farming. That connection drives our belief: agricultural families & estates deserve independent advice, irrespective of if their wealth sits in the fields, or the bank.
We work with farmers, landowners, and agricultural professionals across Yorkshire and the Dales.
We’re not chasing ‘funds under management’, we’re here to build financial strategies tailored to the realities of rural life.
Whether it’s succession, retirement, or simply getting your ducks in a row, we can help you protect both your livelihood and your legacy.
We measure success by the value we add.
We only work with clients when we believe our advice, after fees, will leave you in a stronger financial position than before we met.
For many of our clients, success isn’t just about growing wealth, it’s about using it well. That means helping you make confident decisions, avoid costly mistakes, and align your financial strategy with the life you want for yourself and your family.
We focus on making your money work harder, so your life feels easier.
When We Help
There is no specific ‘right time’ to engage with us, however we do find that many of our clients have gone through, or are going through, similar stages and experiences.
-
You’ve worked hard to get here, but now the questions begin. Can you afford to spend freely? Will your money last? What does a good retirement actually look like?
We offer clear, planning-led advice with fixed fees and no product bias. So you can retire with confidence, not uncertainty.
-
How much is it really worth? How much do you need to walk away? And what comes next, financially and personally, when you’re no longer running the company?
We help you answer the big questions with joined-up advice and fixed fees. No product bias. No pressure to invest the proceeds. Just clarity, when it matters most.
-
You might be paying 1% a year for investment management. £10,000 or more on a £1m portfolio.
As your portfolio rises, so do your fees. But is the service rising with it?
We charge fixed fees, so you know exactly what you’re paying, and exactly what you’re getting.
-
Sometimes the best decision is to do nothing. Sometimes it’s to spend, not save. And sometimes, keeping money in the bank or the business is wiser than chasing returns.
Our fixed fee model ensures we can can give you truly independent advice, focused on what’s right for you, not what’s profitable for us.
-
Whilst inheriting a significant sum can provide financial security, it inevitably arrives at a time where making significant decisions can be hard.
Because our fees are fixed, we have no incentive to tell you to invest the money.
That means we can give clear, impartial advice across all areas: whether it’s paying down your mortgage, gifting to your children, or spending on a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
-
When building a business, it’s natural to focus on growth, to reinvest, expand, and pour everything back into what you’ve built.
But at a certain point, diversification becomes essential. You want to protect what you’ve created and make smart decisions beyond the business. Yet most advice stops at “invest in a pension.”
Our subscription fee model means we have no incentive to push investments over other options.
That means we can help you explore everything: paying down debt, building reserves, investing outside the business, or even restructuring.
Our advice aims to be impartial, and wholly focussed on achieving you the best outcome.
