Director
Paul joined the Walker Crips team in October 2023, having spent 20 years both advising clients and being part of the senior leadership team at Pannells Financial Planning Ltd, before its recent acquisition. Together with Joanne Crewe, he forms part of the London Financial Planning team. Paul will focus his attention on continuing to advise a diverse range of high-net-worth private clients and trusts, whilst also identifying and developing opportunities to grow the team’s client bank and interact with like-minded professionals. Paul has over 29 years’ experience in advising clients and is committed to providing clients with a truly independent and bespoke financial planning experience; one that puts the client at the core of everything that he does and with the delivery of exceptional client service, being a key driver. Paul adopts a holistic approach to client planning and has a wealth of experience in providing advice across all areas, including the tax efficient accumulation of wealth, retirement planning, estate / trust planning and use of esoteric planning options. Paul is very much a people person and is adept at understanding his clients and their vision, with the aim of developing specific strategies, tailored to the client’s goals. Paul focuses on developing long-term client relationships, built on a foundation of mutual trust and transparency, where the clients aims are reviewed on an ongoing basis, and their planning is adapted to cater for changes in both personal circumstances and wider goals. This approach has given Paul the opportunity to work on a wide range of multi-generational client assignments over the years
