In this episode of Foster Denovo Talks, we speak with Ross Stevens, Financial Adviser at Foster Denovo, about what it means to take full ownership of your work.

Ross joined the firm during the pandemic, inheriting a client bank from three retiring Partners. It was a steep learning curve, but one that taught him how to lead with trust, build strong client relationships and develop his own rhythm.

He shares how he moved from a self-employed role to an employed one, and why that shift did not change the way he works. With the right culture and support, Ross explains, being employed still means working with freedom and purpose.
