Hannah Irlam | Paraplanner

After recently moving from Manchester to Newcastle, I decided it was time for a career change after previously working in the travel industry. In 2023, I joined The Financial Guys.

What drew me to The Financial Guys was the family-oriented atmosphere and the strong support network that extends to both team members and clients. We have a close-knit team that collaborates closely to ensure everyone thrives.

I enjoy the variety in my day-to-day activities, and I particularly like supporting the advisers. Whether it’s handling complex client queries or ensuring compliance, every day brings new challenges and opportunities to learn and grow.

Looking ahead, I am excited about continuing my journey with The Financial Guys and The Will Guys. The supportive environment and dynamic work make it a fulfilling place to be, and I am committed to contributing to our team’s success for the long term.

In my spare time, I enjoy eating out at new restaurants and taking long walks at the beach.

Brian at the Financial Guys supported my partner in securing life insurance and critical illness cover. It wasn't a straightforward application, but Brian made sure the process was clear and stress-free. Really knowledgeable, helpful and professional. Thank you!

I dealt with Kieron on two occasions, once to write my will and secondly for life insurance. He was extremely knowledgeable and professional. I will definitely recommend their services.

Having been recommended The Financial Guys to help with our mortgage renewal this year we are ecstatic with the result. We had a clear idea of what we wanted from our renewal however the expertise from the advisors ensured we got the best deal. We were guided from start to finish by Gill and Josh and couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. They were on hand for every query no matter how small or how many times we changed our minds. I wouldn’t think of using anybody else in the future

My husband and myself spoke to Josh at a few video calls to arrange a joint will and income protection insurance. At every call Josh was friendly, informative and gave sound guidance. He was always punctual and his communication in between calls was great.

Third time I have dealt with Kieron. I highly recommend The Financial Guys. Kieron is professional, knowledgeable, and has made managing my finances straightforward and stress-free. He truly listens and provides tailored, proactive advice that I can trust. If you’re looking for expert financial guidance, Kieron is the person to see. Excellent service all around!

Gill is fantastic and helps us with any financial or mortgage queries to support us. She has been excellent at sorting our wills and life cover and ensuring we are supported in a way that’s best for our circumstances. I’d highly recommend Gill to sort out any of your financial, mortgage or adult admin needs!

I was one of Gill’s first mortgage clients and she was fantastic from start to finish. She made the whole process simple and stress-free, always kept me updated, and was on hand whenever I needed help. Professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly, I felt confident throughout. I’d highly recommend Gill to anyone looking for mortgage advice. Thank you! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I've worked with Kirk twice now and I'll recommend him every time. The service is professional, friendly and I genuinely feel they put the customer before their own profit. Everyone I've recommended to him to have had nothing put positive things to say.

I can’t recommend Brian Thompson from The Financial Guys highly enough. His depth of knowledge across mortgages and protection products is outstanding, and he takes the time to explain every option clearly so you feel confident in each decision. Brian always tailors his advice to your individual circumstances and future goals, making sure you get the solution that genuinely fits your life rather than a one-size-fits-all product. He is unfailingly professional, prompt, and well prepared, yet also warm, approachable, and incredibly patient with questions. From our first conversation, it was obvious that he genuinely cares about his clients, going the extra mile to secure excellent outcomes while keeping the whole process as smooth and stress-free as possible. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable adviser who combines expertise with true professionalism, Brian is exactly who you need.

Kirk is always so helpful and very informative. We felt really taken care of when figuring out our mortgage rates, five years on from when he originally guided us in buying our first home! Thanks for everything!
