Rob Morse

I advise private clients across a range of planning areas including investment management, retirement planning, personal financial planning, and tax-efficient structures.

My work includes advising families, entrepreneurs, and business owners on financial and legacy planning matters, such as Lifetime Company Planning and the death of a key stakeholder. I also act as an Expert Witness in disputed investment cases.

I look after fewer than 70 families with advised assets of almost £150 million.

I provide a truly holistic advisory service that is guided by my ability to simplify problems and provide solutions with empathy, persistence, integrity, and humour.

My approach to financial planning is one that seeks to demystify and explain complex financial problems, strategies, and solutions in a financial language that can be comprehensively understood by all my clients.

I have vast experience operating within the Media and Entertainment industry, principally looking after a number of high-profile individuals and their families from the world of music.

What drives me?

I worked with Chase de Vere Financial Advisers Ltd as a Director for almost 20 years where I established their Leeds office before founding The Private Office with six of my partners in 2008.

In July 2014, I stepped down as Governor at a local, independent school, where I had, for 13 years, utilised my financial and tax knowledge to add value and help guide the school along its journey.

I am also a member of the Country Land and Business Association (CLA) and have a breadth of experience, as well as a keen interest, in agribusiness and the countryside.

Outside of industry-related topics, I enjoy running (slowly), motor racing, being out with my dog and/or three children, country pursuits, and a wide variety of sports – from the touchline.
