I first engaged Wendy when I was acquiring a business. Right from our initial meeting, I was impressed by her depth of knowledge, solid advice and all-around professionalism. Wendy was a massive support and now plays a key role in my business, guiding me on all things financial. Her financial and business acumen is unparalleled. She is always approachable and ready to help, and nothing seems to faze her. Working with Wendy is like having a personal advisor as she treats you like you are her only client. I can't recommend Wendy and her team highly enough. – Julie Gilmore, Managing Director, Ryan Recruitment Limited
