Our Chartered Financial Planner and Head of Investments Martyn spoke with the Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce to answer some questions about his role at Watson Wood.
See the below link for the great Q&A from Martyn -
Watson Wood has been named a winner at the Citywire New Model Adviser Financial Planning firm of the year for Scotland and Northern Ireland – for the second time in three years!
It’s a great achievement for the whole team, and something we’re really proud of. These awards recognise firms delivering high-quality financial planning and strong client outcomes, so to be recognised at this level means a lot to us.
But it’s not just about the work we do with our client's day to day — it’s also about the role we play in the wider community. Supporting financial education in local schools is something that’s really important to us, and we’re proud to be helping build knowledge and confidence for the next generation.
What makes this even more special is that it reflects the consistent work that goes on behind the scenes every day — both supporting our clients and continuing to grow as a business.
A big thank you to our team for their hard work, and to our clients for the trust they place in us.
We’re really looking forward to what’s ahead! ... See MoreSee Less
Great to see Kirsty featured by DYW Moray, showcasing her journey and the different routes into a career in financial planning.🌟 Career Spotlight: Kirsty- Watson Wood Financial Planning
Meet Kirsty, a former Bishopmill Primary and Elgin Academy pupil who has built an incredible career right here in Moray.
Kirsty knew she wanted a professional career but didn’t want to go to university straight after school, she wanted to learn on the job. So she started as a Trainee Financial Adviser, worked her way up, and is now a Chartered Financial Planner and Director at Watson Wood Financial Planning.
Her favourite subject at school was English, which still helps her today with the report writing her role involves.
Kirsty’s proudest moments include becoming Chartered, achieving her degree, and starting her own business — proof that there’s no single “right” path to success.
💬 Her best career advice? “Keep a work/life balance!”
A brilliant example of where determination, on‑the‑job learning and local opportunities can take you. ... See MoreSee Less
This year marks 9 years of Watson Wood, and we were pleased to celebrate the milestone with cake in the office!
It has been another busy and positive year for the business, including continued growth in our Aberdeen office, the move to a larger office in Elgin and the welcomed addition of four new members of staff.
We would like to thank our clients and professional contacts for their continued support and look forward to the year ahead. ... See MoreSee Less
