About

Kirsty is a Partner at The Private Office, located in London but also covering areas such as Brighton, Maidenhead and Bedford. As an experienced Chartered Financial Planner, Kirsty offers advice to private clients and business owners on all aspects of their financial and strategic planning. She works in collaboration with her clients to help them meet their financial goals. As a financial adviser, her role is not only to provide the highest quality technical advice, but to ensure that her clients understand and are confident in, the decisions made and actions taken.

Her expertise allows her to be able to advise on all aspects of financial and strategic planning, including inheritance tax planning, maximising tax allowances and pension advice. She provides support to a wide range of clients, including some of our Family Office clients, managing the financial affairs of wealthy individuals and their families. 

Kirsty has previous experience working with the Citizen’s Advice, where she delivered one-to-one guidance to the general public on the 2015 legislative changes to pensions. This experience honed her ability to relay complex technical information without the need for industry jargon and has driven her to ensure that her approach to advising clients is always as clear and concise as possible. 

With regular features in the press, Kirsty has lent her expertise to publications such as The Times, The Telegraph and The Guardian, and has appeared on BBC Money Box and BBC 1 - Morning Live. She is also involved in our internal adviser training programme, sharing her knowledge and providing support to those in the process of becoming financial advisers. 

As well as being a Chartered Financial Planner, Kirsty also has qualifications including certificates in Discretionary Investment Management and Securities Advice and Dealing. She holds a Law degree from Bournemouth University.

Kirsty was amazing. Kirsty was extremely knowledgeable, professional and approachable and very quickly gained our trust. Advice and options given were based on very detailed analysis. Kirsty took time to clearly explain options, was very patient, put us at ease and was always available to answer any questions. Kirsty helped us immensely in determining best course of action for early retirement, savings, investments and pension options.
