Mr Ghandi joins the Guildford office where he will be an investment manager.

He holds the Level 7 Chartered Wealth Manager designation from the Chartered Institute of Securities and Investment.  

He joins from Charles Stanley where he started as a finance assistant in 2013 and worked his way up to investment manager.

Tilney Smith & Williamson recently expanded its presence in Guildford with a new office. New joiners at the office include 30 staff who joined the firm following the acquisition of HFS Milbourne in March 2021, from two other office sites in the city.

The group now has more than 100 people from both its wealth management and professional services businesses co-located at the Guildford office.  

Mr Ghandi said: “I am very pleased to have joined Tilney Smith & Williamson. We have a strong reputation, are growing assets and offer a service to clients that is unparalleled to other firms in the industry. Tilney Smith & Williamson’s holistic, multi-disciplinary approach to wealth management means that clients have access to a broad range of in-house expertise, including investment management, Financial Planning, tax and accountancy services.

“I look forward to collaborating with my esteemed colleagues in the Guildford branch, many of whom are leaders in their chosen field, and we hope to continue consolidating our established and dominant position in the South East region.”
