Professionals
We help high earning professionals and their families to plan for their future as well as enjoy the wealth they have now.
Have you started your financial journey?
Life is busy, what with juggling your career or maybe your own business alongside your family. So it can be difficult to make time to think about your financial priorities and what you need to do about them.
Are you thinking about buying your first home or can you afford to move to that house that you have your eye on? What if your household loses your income due to a long-term illness, accident or worse? If the worst happened, how would those you leave behind manage financially? Although it may be many years away, how much do you have to set aside to give you the future you wish for? And how do you ensure you do this in the most tax-efficient way?
We can help you find out if your money is working as hard as it should, by understanding what you need your wealth to achieve. Then we’ll create a holistic financial plan which will set you on the right course to achieving your goals.
We can help you
- Get on top of your finances to achieve the lifestyle you want to have now and for the future.
- Put the right arrangements in place to look after you and your family should you become ill or die.
- Simplify your various pensions and invest them to achieve your retirement goals.
- Achieve your goals, whether they are to buy your first home, or move to a bigger home for a growing family.
- Start thinking now for your retirement. This may seem distant, but it's important to understand what you need to do now to achieve the retirement you want.
- Decide what to do with windfalls, such as a bonus payment or inheritance.
- Plan for your children’s future with school fees planning and tax-efficient savings and investments.

We have known John Skipton for 11 years. John Skipton is always patient and gives good sound advice. I would be happy to recommend John Skipton and PFM Associates to anyone should the situation arise.
Christchurch Clients since 2014

John has a very strong ability to explain complex financial matters in a simple and concise way, without watering down the key points of detail. This is important when I am making decisions about my financial future.
Bournemouth A client since 2015

Since being a client of PFM, I have been really impressed with the level of personal service and advice I have also received. Pensions and tax are a minefield of complexity to the uninformed and PFM have brought great clarity and I have learned much from Christian's advice, all provided with a very friendly and clear approach.
Bournemouth A client since 2019

PFM have been our Independent Financial Advisers for many years. We like the fact that each adviser has their own area of expertise, so clients have access to a wide knowledge base. We feel confident that our money is well-managed and highly recommend PFM.
Dorset A client since 1998

I was introduced to PFM by a family member about 12 years ago, in order to obtain personal pension planning advice. I have been very pleased with the advice given by my adviser, for my pensions and for wealth management. I have no hesitation in recommending PFM.
Bristol A client since 2012

Christian is only my second ‘adviser’ in 30 years of professional financial advice and I feel that I could not have acquired a better one; he listens carefully, is always empathetic to my concerns and requests.
I totally trust his judgement and considered advice which has always been balanced and very rewarding.
