Armstrong Watson has announced the appointment of Nick Birtle as a financial planning consultant at its Penrith office.
Birtle’s appointment comes months after the company appointed Sarah Tallentire in the same role. This has seen the company’s Penrith financial planning team double in size.
The financial planning team is led by head of advice Justin Rourke. Combined with Paul Moody the team has over 60 years of experience.
Birtle said: “I am very excited to join Justin and the team in Penrith. Armstrong Watson is the perfect fit for me being the only top 30 accountancy firm to have an in-house team of Chartered Financial Planners and Asset Management expertise.
“The opportunity to provide independent financial advice to local people and business owners is not something I take lightly. Our advice proposition is compelling and provides excellent value to clients as a standalone offering. However, when combined with the firm’s specialist tax and accountancy service lines, there really is no firm better placed to help clients prosper.”
Tallentire added: “I feel privileged to have joined Armstrong Watson as a Financial Planning Consultant. To be a part of the growing team in Penrith, alongside Justin, Paul and Nick fills me with an immense sense of pride.
“Our joined-up approach across all areas of the business, really does mean we are able to put the needs of our clients first and support them throughout theirs and their family’s lifetime.’’
