Partnering With You for Financial Success
I offer expert insight and tailored solutions to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
About Me
Alan began his career at HSBC in 1989 and moved into financial advice in 1996. Initially providing mortgage advice, he quickly progressed into more senior roles, including Commercial Financial Planning Manager and ultimately High Net Worth Wealth Director. This experience gave him extensive knowledge across discretionary investments, retirement planning, inheritance tax mitigation, business protection and employee benefits.
Clients value Alan’s clear, jargon‑free communication and the trust built through long‑term relationships.
As an appointed representative of Intelligent Financial Advisory, he provides bespoke, whole‑of‑market solutions—selecting best‑in‑class investment platforms, pension strategies and financial products tailored to each client’s needs.
Outside of work, Alan is a keen swimmer, cyclist and runner. His greatest passion, as a qualified yacht skipper, is sailing holidays in the Mediterranean.
My Vision
I help clients feel secure about their financial future by providing proven strategies with expertise. Through exceptional service and long-term trust, I aim to become their first point of contact and the adviser they recommend.
My Mission
My purpose is to empower confident financial decisions through customised and effective strategies. I aim to help clients build and maintain wealth while forming meaningful partnerships based on trust and integrity.
Core Values
I'm driven by a commitment to integrity, putting my clients’ needs at the heart of every decision I make. I strive to deliver excellence in service, taking full accountability for the guidance I provide.

Releasing some pension
Alan helped me to release a tax free lump sum from my pension. Once he had all the information from me I didn’t have to do a thing. He explained everything to me in plain English so I understood what was happening. Excellent.
Professional in depth Financial Advice
I found Alan after experiencing services of a poor Ifa..He is very knowledgeable and conveys information in an easy way .
I would highly recommend his services,hard to find a person you can trust look no further !
Highly Professional Advice
We met with Alan through a recommendation to discuss retirement plans and were immediately taken with how professional, thorough and friendly he was. We engaged with two other IFA’s but these did not measure up to Alan. Alan has the brilliant ability to explain financial constructs in easy to understand jargon free ways. We are very happy with our choice of IFA and having the backing of Intelligent Financial Advisory company. Sterling service Mr Barber !
