James Robinson
Senior Financial Adviser
I am James a Senior Financial Adviser, with Australia Wide Financial Planning since August 2021, 3.5 years.
Education and Experience

In that time, I have completed a Bachelor of Business Management (Accounting Major), Graduate Certificate in Financial Planning and earned the Self-Managed Specialist AAdviser (SSA) designation from the SMSF Association.

What my clients say
If you asked my clients what they would say about me, it would that I am very much an “everyday persons adviser”. I take the time to ensure that clients understand the advice/plan that is being given, ensure they understand the short requirements while understanding the long term changes these plans will have. While keeping the plans simple and flexible so clients are not overwhelmed, when changes occur in life we can pivot and they can reach the long term goals we set out.
