Float financial advisers

Head Financial Advisor - Private, Wealth & Advisory

May 2025Present · 1 yr · Auckland, New Zealand · Hybrid

  • I lead Float’s Private, Wealth & Advisory division—built for business owners, professionals, and families who need more than just transactional advice. This is a natural evolution of my work through Abundance, where I’ve spent years helping people design lives of purpose, clarity, and freedom.
  • At Float, we’re reimagining what financial advice looks like. We bridge the gap between traditional accounting and siloed financial services by offering integrated strategies across business, lending, insurance, and investment. Our goal is to be the single point of guidance for those with complex needs but no private banker.
  • Every relationship begins with one question: What does your ideal life look like?
  • From there, I help clients align their business goals with personal wealth outcomes—covering everything from strategic growth, cash flow, and lending, to wealth protection, succession, and investing.
  • Together, we simplify the complex so clients can make confident, forward-thinking decisions—and live with more intention, clarity, and control.
