IFA Portals is small but rapidly growing company, we've got some excellent people delivering, servicing and developing your IFAPortal websites. Unfortunately for you, the people you're most likely to come into contact with at exhibitions and the like are the management team, and as it goes they're okay too. Below we've provided a short biography for each member of the management team.
Mark has been in the financial services industry for the past 24 years and still owns a firm of financial advisers in the Greater Manchester area, since launching IFAPortals in April 2004 more and more of his time has been dedicated to building IFAPortals into one of the major providers of websites to the IFA/Mortgage Broker community. Mark is now pretty much full time in IFAPortals due to him adopting a completely “hands on approach” he contacts every new customer personally, along with performing on-line demonstrations and telephone training-this ensures that he remains at the sharp end of the business so that he can listen to feedback and respond accordingly. Mark believes his 24 years as an IFA puts him a unique position when understanding the needs of IFAs and what they require from their websites especially in the area of compliance where IFAPortals strive to supply the most up to date compliant content available without the IFA having to worry that it will not be appropriate.
Amanda herself has worked in an administration role within the financial services industry for over 11 years-this again gives her a good understanding of how IFAs work, Amanda is responsible for the day to day running of the business administration.
