Eveleyn Partners, the Financial Planning firm previously known as Tilney Smith & Williamson, has added Financial Planner Catherine Glennon to its Cambridge team.

The appointment takes the firm’s Cambridge client-facing team to 16.

Ms Glennon joins from Tees Financial, the IFA arm of regional law firm Tees.

She has 17 years of Financial Planning experience with a specialism in working with family law solicitors to support clients who need Financial Planning advice as a result of family breakdowns.

She also specialises in wealth accumulation towards retirement and estate planning.

Ms Glennon said: “Clients and their extended families are at the core of the holistic financial planning service that I provide. The professional support and infrastructure available to me within the team at Evelyn Partners will further enhance the high levels of service and expertise that I pride myself on. 

“With the extensive investment proposition offered by Evelyn Partners, I believe that I can offer progressive, all-encompassing financial advice and support to clients moving forwards, and this was key in my decision to join the Cambridge team.”

Nick Geere, managing partner of Evelyn Partners’ Financial Planning division, said: “Under the old Tilney Smith & Williamson brand this team became established as a leading provider in the region of a broad range of financial planning and investment management services. Catherine will help us to forge ahead under the Evelyn Partners banner to meet the growing demand in the East of England for our expertise and services.”

Ms Glennon is the latest in a series of hires by the Financial Planning firm.

Earlier this week the Financial Planning firm recruited Nick Reeves from Deutsche Bank to boost its international Financial Planning team based in London. 

Evelyn Partners was created following the merger of Tilney and Smith & Williamson and manages or advisers on £55.8 billion of assets. It claims to be the second largest UK wealth manager measured by EBITDA and the sixth largest professional services firm ranked by fee income.

It has offices in across 27 towns and cities in the UK, as well as the Republic of Ireland and the Channel Islands.
