Prime Paraplanning was started by James, a Chartered Financial Planner and a Fellowship Member of the Personal Finance Society with over a decade experience in paraplanning. Prime Paraplanning offers outsourced paraplanning that delivers expert services to UK-based Financial Advisers.

At Prime Paraplanning, our ethos revolves around seamlessly integrating into your team, becoming an indispensable extension of your operations.

We specialise in providing bespoke solutions tailored to your precise needs, underpinned by unwavering professionalism and a dedication to excellence. Our commitment to delivering a timely and flexible paraplanning service, ensures that your requirements are met with precision and care.

Our aim is simple: to liberate your time, enabling you to refocus on what is important to you and your business—building client relationships, driving business growth, and optimising profitability.

Why outsource?

  • No obligation to pay a fulltime employee if work volumes are low.

    In busier periods, we can help you manage the excess workload as and when the need arises, so you don't have to keep your clients waiting.

  • No recruitment costs, sick pay, annual leave, tax, national insurance, or pension contributions to worry about.

    Direct access to an experienced Chartered Fellow and a level of expertise that commands a high salary, on a pay as you go basis.

  • We can hit the ground running. We have a wealth of experience and knowledge built up from over a decade of working with several different companies.

  • No long-term commitments. You just use the service as and when you need it.

    Unlike an employed paraplanner, if you need to end the relationship for any reason, you are free to do so without the HR burden.
