“Jane has proven to be insightful, professional, and highly effective – a trusted advisor who clearly has our best interests in mind. She's also a delight to work with!”

Jane Slater

Managing Director and Chartered Financial Planner

Credentials: Chartered Financial Planner, Advanced Diploma in Financial Planning

The day job: I really enjoy spending time with clients, getting to know them, finding the right solutions for them, and ultimately seeing them enjoying the lifestyle and goals that were often just dreamed of at the start of the process.

Best thing about it: Helping clients find the best path for them, and then being part of their journey over what can be many years brings an enormous sense of satisfaction and purpose.

Favourite pastime: Being outdoors, active, and preferably by the sea. My happy place is in the far west of Cornwall walking along the coastal paths or in the surf.

Fun fact: The most stupid thing I’ve done is to stand on top of a bi-plane – whilst it was flying!

The day job: Challenging individuals and families to really think about what they want from life and helping them use their financial resources in the most efficient way to achieve those goals. The technical specialisms I have developed in investment, retirement, long term care and inheritance planning give me the tools to develop these plans and progress them as circumstances and objectives evolve.

Associate Director and Chartered Financial Planner

Credentials:  Chartered Financial Planner, Advanced Diploma in Financial Planning, BSc Honours

The day job: I help clients plan their future financially by reviewing and arranging their finances more efficiently. Once a plan of action is reached, I then help with implementing and monitoring policies to achieve these goals. I’m also part of Headley’s management team.

Best thing about it: It’s really enjoyable to see the light “switch on” on clients’ faces, when I’ve demonstrated they can afford to retire early or help their children buy a home.

Favourite pastime: I love spending time with my family, along with playing sport and (trying) to keep fit. During the lockdown, I finally improved my DIY and vegetable growing skills.

Fun fact: I’ve jumped out of a perfectly good, working aeroplane at 15,000 feet and can eat three cream crackers in a minute without water (not as easy as it sounds – try it).
