This week Sam is joined by Natalie Cooke, a Paraplanner from Iron Market, to chat about her career journey from an administration role to Paraplanning. More importantly we talk about self-confidence and self-belief. How much of that do you need to get ahead in the financial planning profession? Do you have confidence in your employer to support you on your career journey and do they have a personal development & mentorship programme? Natalie thinks that this support is vital to move your career in the right direction, without this it’s easy to stagnate in a role that you’ve fallen out of love with. 

We cover: 

• Natalie’s career journey 
• What does an administrator role entail? 
• How Iron Market are supporting career progression 
• What firms can do to attract more females into the financial planning profession 
• Advice for someone who wants to move on up in their career
