David Kelleher
Financial Services Lead
Dave, hailing from Cork, boasts over 30 years of experience in Financial Services. His wealth of expertise spans various facets of personal finance, making him a valuable resource for his clients.
Whether you require guidance on estate planning, pension management, investments, or any other aspect of your financial strategy,
Dave is ready to lend a hand. He's committed to demystifying financial jargon and injecting a touch of humour into the process. When he's not untangling financial complexities, you'll likely find him engrossed in a gripping crime novel, cup of tea in hand.
Carmel Green
Financial Services Lead, Head of Business Development
Carmel oversees client portfolios and acts as the liaison with product providers. Her dedication lies in ensuring you have the optimal financial plan tailored to your needs. While Carmel is well-versed in various financial aspects, her specialty lies in protection. She goes the extra mile to navigate the complexities of life insurance, advocating for clients regardless of their health status.
Carmel assesses everyone’s circumstances and recommends insurers who are understanding of their condition, prioritising their well-being over mere affordability. She ensures you grasp the ins and outs of your policy, explaining any exclusions in plain language before you commit. Committed to simplifying financial jargon, Carmel adds a dash of humour to the process—making her a perfect fit alongside Dave!
When not immersed in financial matters or updating social media, you'll likely find her engrossed in a gripping crime novel; though, unlike Dave, she's a coffee connoisseur!
