Tilney hires Financial Planner from Hargreaves Lansdown
Tilney Bestinvest, the investment and Financial Planning group, has appointed a new Financial Planner as part of its aim to expand its Financial Planning team.
Nicholas Nicol previously worked for Hargreaves Lansdown for five years as a Financial Planner and was responsible for clients across London and North Kent.
His other roles include client manager at Bank of Scotland Investment Services as well as holding positions at Equitable Life Assurance Society and Prudential over a 22 year career within financial services.
Mr Nicol will be based in the Holborn office in London and will report to Adam Osper, director, Financial Planning.
He will be responsible for delivering expert advice as part of the firm’s ‘two expert’ approach which sees Financial Planners paired alongside the firm’s investment managers to provide an integrated wealth management service to clients.
Richard Dawes, managing director, Financial Planning, said: “Nicholas joins us as part of Tilney Bestinvest’s continuing expansion within the Financial Planning sector, and follows our recent acquisition of the Webb Holton business in Birmingham and the hiring of highly talented Financial Planning staff across the United Kingdom.
“Demand for financial advice is currently higher than it has ever been before. This is important and we are committed to growing our Financial Planning offering in order to provide the trusted relationships and holistic advice our clients require.”
