With over 30 years of experience in the finance industry, Tim has specialized in financial planning. He dedicated nearly a decade to establishing and expanding Outlook Financial Planning, a financial planning practice based in a credit union. Tim later transitioned to the role of National Manager — Financial Planning for Perpetual Private Clients, where he spent five years. During this time, he developed financial planning services and processes for the Private Clients Division, overseeing their implementation both internally and externally. Tim also continued to personally advise high net worth clients.

Following this, Tim assumed the position of Chief Executive Officer at WHK Financial Planning, the financial planning division of WHK Group. Over the course of five years, he played a pivotal role in building the financial planning sector across the WHK Group.

After a decade in senior management, Tim became an advising Principal of WHK Melbourne, allowing him to return to his passion for delivering personalised advice and support.
