Paul Joynes

Paul started working for Natwest in 1980 on the retail banking side before eventually being persuaded to go into the financial advisory role in 1991. He started off as a Personal Financial Adviser before promotion to a Personal Financial Planning Manager dealing with high net worth clients. Paul moved from Natwest in 1998 as their direction with bank assurance changed and he got headhunted to join Woolwich Building Society, involved in setting up a mortgage and account based advice service called Open Plan Services. Furthermore, Paul spent two years or so with them before being introduced to Joseph Lamb Independent Financial Advisers where he spent 21 years before being taken over by Kingswood Group Plc, and continued to work for a further two years.

The most important thing for Paul is his clients and how he looks after his clients, guiding them through all aspects of personal financial advice.

Outside of work Paul has been involved with most sports but in particular playing and coaching football at semi professional level, which includes clubs like Dover Athletic, Bishop’s Stortford, Grays Athletic, Tilbury, Aveley and Romford to name a few. Probably the biggest achievements according to Paul was reaching the 3rd round of the FA Cup with Dover Athletic, beating Gillingham and Aldershot on the way, before losing to Huddersfield as well as reaching the Conference South play offs with Bishop’s Stortford.
