We're hiring, and we're being deliberate about it. 🌿

Five roles. Different levels. One consistent thing:

We're looking for people who care about doing good work and want to be part of a firm that does the same.

Paraplanner, Senior Paraplanner, Trainee Financial Planner and Financial Planner roles are all live on our careers page now.

If you're experienced and open to a conversation, we'd love to hear from you 👇

One of the patterns we see surprisingly often with business owners? 👀

So much focus goes into growing the business that personal financial planning quietly gets pushed further and further down the list.

Not because it isn’t important, but because when you’re busy building something, it’s easy to assume you’ll “sort that bit later”.

So we're hosting a workshop on exactly that.

A proper afternoon away from the day-to-day, with sessions on:

🌍 The Landscape for Business Owners

🛡️ Protecting What You’re Building – Safeguarding Your Business and Its People

💼 Turning Business Success into Personal Financial Security

🏖️ Life After Exit – Turning Sale Proceeds into Sustainable Retirement

A few spaces remain. If you'd like one of them to be yours, you can reserve your place below 👇

See you there! 😎

Meet Andy and Gill.

Married for 25+ years, living near Selby and starting to ask a big question:

Could we retire earlier… and still be okay? 🤔

When they came to IFP, they didn’t want complexity or constant research.

They wanted clarity. Confidence. And someone to take the pressure off.

What followed wasn’t a sales process, just honest conversations that turned into a plan.

One that’s given them the freedom to step back, take what they need, and enjoy life while they’re still fit and healthy 🌿

And just as importantly?

The reassurance that someone’s always keeping things on track behind the scenes.

That’s what good financial planning should feel like.



The value of investments and any income from them can fall as well as rise and you may not get back the original amount invested.

A lot of Paraplanners reach a point where they want to be more involved in the bigger picture.

Not just producing high-quality work, but contributing to the thinking behind it.

At IFP, that’s something we actively encourage.

We’re looking for an experienced Paraplanner who enjoys being part of the planning process - from exploring ideas through to shaping recommendations.

The kind of person who:

🔍 Likes getting into the detail

💬 Asks thoughtful questions

🧠 Enjoys contributing to decisions as well as delivering work

You’ll be part of a genuinely collaborative team where knowledge and ideas are shared openly.

And where your role can grow in the direction you want:

➡️ Developing as a career Paraplanner
➡️ Progressing towards becoming a Financial Planner

We’re here to support both paths.

If that sounds more like the role you've been looking for, you can find more details here:

A new face at IFP (and already part of the morning rhythm) 👋

Jeremy’s joined us as a Junior Paraplanner, stepping into the detail, the research and the thinking that sits behind good advice.

But what’s mattered most to him so far isn’t just the work.

It’s the environment around it.

Open conversations. Ideas shared freely. The kind of place where you can listen in, learn quickly, and gradually raise your own standards just by being in the room.

Outside the office, you’ll likely find Jeremy in the gym or planning his next trip somewhere a little sunnier than Hull... having already lived in three different countries along the way!

Great to have you with us, Jeremy.

The future is certainly bright! 😄

It's always fun to network with other professionals, especially when it's for such a good cause!

In the world of finance and wealth, it’s easy to focus on performance, progress and outcomes.

But absolutely none of that works without the people behind it. 👥

At IFP, wellbeing isn’t treated as a one-off initiative or a tick-box exercise.

It’s intentionally woven into how we work day to day.

Our employees always talk about how we have an open, supportive environment where conversations happen naturally.

There's always more structured support when it’s needed, too.

That includes things like:

✔️ Access to private medical support, including counselling

✔️ A Wellbeing Team where people can ask for help, and be heard

✔️ An environment that values long-term development, not short-term pressure

Because doing good work sustainably means looking after the people doing it. 🧠

What does it really take to move from Paraplanner to Financial Adviser? 🤔

For Charlie, it’s been about more than just exams (although 10 and counting certainly helps).

It’s the environment around that, having people to bounce ideas off, a team that’s aligned, and the kind of support that builds confidence over time, not overnight.

At IFP, progression isn’t rushed. But it is supported.

If you’re an experienced Paraplanner considering where your career could lead, this is a path worth exploring.
