Chris Hindle
BSc, MLIBF, PETR, Chartered ALIBF
Operations Director & Chartered Associate
After graduating with a degree in business and finance, Chris started his career working for a well-known independent financial adviser. Having initially joined as a trainee administrator, he quickly climbed the ranks to become a technical analyst and then practice manager. This taught him how to run and manage a successful financial advisory firm.
Chris then progressed to another well respected independent financial adviser in Bristol, where he headed up a team of technical analysts. This taught him the importance of a strong ‘back office’ in delivering great client service.
After several more years, Chris decided to set up Frazer James Financial Advisers, a true financial planning firm where the client comes first. On a day-to-day basis, Chris supports the financial adviser with research, analysis and report writing. He manages the day-to-day operations, ensuring everything runs smoothly.
Outside of work, Chris enjoys cycling along the canals in Bradford-on-Avon or taking part in an organised charity ride to Belgium each year.
