Stuart Phillips
I was one of the founding Partners at The Private Office from its inception in 2008 and reached my current position of CEO in 2013.
In my role of CEO, my clear focus is to build and develop our talented team of professionals, ensuring we provide the highest level of service for our clients, whilst delivering our business strategy.
We aim to become the leading national provider of financial planning and wealth management in the UK.
As a Board Director for Advice Champion Limited (ACL), I am responsible for the direction of the firms in the corporate group.
Having graduated from Manchester University in 1999 after reading Geography, I began my career in financial services in the research and technical department of a multi-national IFA where I ultimately became a leading private client adviser.
Alongside my other roles, I have overseen our three acquisitions as a business and am regularly called upon to comment on financial or regulatory affairs in the national media. We have built a unique business in our sector, growing the majority of our own talented team organically. We became PFS Chartered firm of the year 2022/23 and have won a plethora of awards.
When I am not at work
My wife Lynsey and I have two boys in their late teens and live on a farm in the Lincolnshire countryside. The whole family enjoys road cycling and being active.
Each year, to give me something non-work related to focus on, I always try and participate in a cycling stage race to remind myself what an average cyclist I am.
My qualifications
- Diploma in Financial Planning
- Financial Planning Certificate
