The firm has been recruiting new members to its teams across the UK.

UK financial services group Tilney has appointed Alex Bolton as a financial planner based in its Nottingham office, continuing the firm’s strategic recruitment drive.

Bolton will be responsible for delivering wealth management advice to clients alongside investment managers, as part of the firm’s two expert approach, Tilney said in a statement.

He joins from Castlegate Financial Management, where he spent four years as a financial planner and pension specialist. Prior to Castlegate, he was a pension advisor at Oval Financial Services.

“Alex is a highly-talented financial planner and has a great track record of forging and maintaining relationships with both clients and key professional connections in the accountancy and solicitor space,” said Rob Chandler, regional head of financial planning. “He joins us during a period of growth for the firm within the financial planning sector and will be a key member of the team as we continue to reinforce our two expert approach to supporting clients with financial advice and tailored investment management.”
