Southampton: Grant Thornton’s financial planning team continues to grow

Leading business adviser Grant Thornton has added to its growing team with the appointment of Charles Cavendish as financial planning manager at its Southampton office.

Cavendish joins the firm from financial advisers Towry in Chichester, where he was wealth adviser. Within his new role at Grant Thornton he will advise high- and ultra-high-net-worth individuals seeking to preserve and enhance their wealth through independent and impartial advice. Cavendish is a chartered financial planner, fellow of the Personal Finance Society and is progressing in his studies with The Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP).

Director Nick Lee commented: “Charles is a great addition to the team and will further boost Grant Thornton's extensive financial planning capability in Southampton. He comes equipped with vital expertise at a time of great challenges in the market and so will provide a steady hand our high-net-worth clients can rely on.”

Cavendish added: "Grant Thornton's financial planning team in Southampton has seen unrivalled business growth in the past couple of years. I am looking forward to working with clients across the south to deliver wealth planning solutions and help them to realise their ambitions. The firm has the strength in depth that comes with a national and international network and I was attracted by the investment and growth in the team locally."

Cavendish’s appointment compliments Lee's team, which also includes Sandy McPherson, the other Southampton based adviser in the team.
