Chris is a qualified accountant, starting his career at Deloitte where he worked with many financial institutions in M&A and advisory roles. He then spent several years at investment firm Man Group in a senior strategy role. 

A self-confessed maths geek, Chris was extolling the benefits of pensions and compound interest from an early age. 

He became frustrated with the lack of visibility and transparency he encountered from traditional providers and knew that a superior customer experience was urgently needed to engage a younger generation of savers with pension savings. 

He is responsible for Product and Marketing at Penfold and shares CEO responsibilities with Co-Founder Pete.
