Description:

“In Australia, I was an experienced Financial planner holding the equivalent of chartered status. However, when I moved to the UK that equated to 30 CII credits! I quickly realised I had to leave my ego at the door, retake my exams and adapt to the UK market.”

And that’s exactly what Jason did, spending several years in a client relationship manager role, retraining and passing exams, and eventually securing a role with Irwin Mitchel as a personal injury financial planner.

I’ve always enjoyed representing financial planners in the clinical negligence and personal injury space and Jason shares deeply about why this is the perfect role for him and how Andrew Nicholson of Recruit UK helped him find the perfect role. 

- The role of a personal injury specialist, and why this financial planning niche is so rewarding.   
- Similarities and differences between the UK and Australian financial planning profession.

- Challenges faced when stepping into the UK Financial planning profession from abroad. 

- Why he has decided to set up a YouTube channel and focus on social media marketing.
