What does it take to transition from an administrative role to a technical expert in financial planning? Join us as we talk with Paula Guedes, a dynamic practice lead at Foster Denovo. Paulas journey from Brazil to the UK, pursuing a master's in finance and economics, and working her way up from an entry-level position to a chartered paraplanner, is nothing short of inspiring. She shares how her analytical strengths and passion for financial planning have shaped her career, offering valuable insights for women aspiring to make their mark in this predominantly male-dominated profession.

Communication is the cornerstone of any successful financial planning team. In this episode, Paola elaborates on the crucial relationship between financial advisers and paraplanners, emphasising the benefits of fostering a team atmosphere. She reveals how paraplanners can enhance client confidence by simplifying complex financial information, and discusses the unique perspective non-native English speakers can bring to the table. Celebrating the achievements of women in finance, Paola advocates for greater diversity and inclusion, making a compelling case for why the profession needs more female leaders.

Paulas story of ambition and growth is both motivating and instructive. After significant personal milestones, such as the birth of her daughter, she returned to work with renewed vigor, tackling challenging qualifications and securing a promotion to chartered paraplanner. She highlights the importance of continuous learning, viewing failure as a stepping stone rather than a setback. By sharing her experiences at Foster Denovo, including the firm's impressive gender diversity and people-centric approach, Paula underscores the significance of personal growth and development within the company. Her journey serves as a testament to the power of ambition, resilience, and the pursuit of excellence in one's career.  if you are interested in joining Foster Denovo  - Click here
