Are You The Future Of Advice?
Ward Goodman Financial Services are proud to be a part of the Future of Advice (FOA) initiative which supports the next generation of financial advisers.
We are keen to help new and enthusiastic individuals gain access to our industry. A student can bring new ideas and energy to our team as they use their university studies in real-world situations.
The combined knowledge within the Ward Goodman team provides the best place for the student to learn and help not only their university studies, but their future career path.


What is Future of Advice?
FOA is a collaboration between local universities, independent financial advice firms and the Personal Finance Society (PFS) which aims to provide a diverse and quality stream of talented younger individuals into financial planning firms.
Ward Goodman work closely with Bournemouth University to offer students a placement opportunity between their second and final year of a relevant undergraduate degree course.
In their year with us, the selected student is engaged in all areas of the planning process to give a full and complete industry experience.
