Alistair Callander

As CFO I am responsible for the organisation's financial strategy and corporate governance. 

I began my career at Deloitte, where I qualified as a Chartered Accountant. I then took a short career break and joined TPO as a Chartered Financial Planner in 2010. I took a highly personal approach to advice and treated each client relationship as a partnership. Allied with my strong technical knowledge I believe sincerity and empathy are paramount to providing clients with the most appropriate solutions to meet their objectives.

In the company's early development I had a dual role, acting as an adviser and CEO alongside Stuart Phillips. Working together enabled the company to build a strong, values based culture focused around our clients. This foundation is helping us to develop a highly talented adviser team that serve our clients today. To grow TPO further, I now focus solely on the company's financial strategy, working alongside the other directors to build a professional, client focused organisation. 

I also act as an Executive Board Director for the group holding company, Advice Champion Limited (ACL),  where I am responsible, with fellow directors, for the strategic direction of the group.  

When I am not at work

I enjoy spending time with my wife Jenny, two daughters and last but not least my two golden retrievers, Willow and Chester. Outside work I enjoy walking the dogs, running, cycling, watching football, playing golf, skiing and very rarely, sailing.
