What our Partners say
Andrew Bramley
With more than 35 years in financial advice, including over two decades running his own successful advisory business, Andrew joined St. James's Place in 2024 through Align. Looking for greater support, flexibility and a clear long-term exit strategy, he found a model that enabled him to maintain strong client relationships while benefiting from the backing of a larger organisation.
Vishal Gulrajani and Thomas Wheatley
Having built successful careers within the financial advice profession, Vishal and Thomas joined St. James’s Place in 2022 to create a business that reflected their shared ambitions. Looking for greater control, long-term growth opportunities and the backing of a supportive Partnership, they have established a thriving business while continuing to expand through both organic growth and the Business Sale and Purchase model.
David Hobbs
I’m in my 6th year with St. James’s Place and in the best financial position of my life. I am well on my way to meet all my professional objectives in the next 3 years. I love my work; I am extremely proud to be part of such a great business. I only wish I had listened to St. James’s Place, Nello Patrone, who contacted me about joining the business many years prior to me coming across to SJP. Who knows where I would be now if I’d have joined back then. I owe a lot to St. James Place and want to thank them for all they have helped me achieve.
“Being part of SJP has lifted me to a much higher level, which has created a lot more business and truly happy clients.”
Liz Robinson
The support I receive in developing me as a person and a business owner, coupled with the offering of a robust client proposition, has given me confidence that my clients are in safe hands. My business has now grown from strength to strength. I have more financial security and job satisfaction. Through SJP’s proven exit strategy I know that when I’m ready to retire, I can do so without leaving my clients in the lurch, and with no liability.
"My work-life balance is healthier than ever, and my business will keep growing each year with the support I have around me at SJP. I am part of a family that cares about my clients and me, which is invaluable.”
Andy Burns
The SJP proposition is strong, with a range of tools and a compelling Trust suite, all underpinned by an outstanding investment proposition to meet all client’s needs and circumstances. Coupled with excellent service and support, it made SJP stand out from the rest. SJP also supports our business growth strategy through their Financial Adviser Academy
Under the SJP Partnership, Chapel Wealth Management is a well-established, multi-adviser business with a robust infrastructure and strong client proposition.
