Solus Financial Planning was founded by Gavin Johnson. Whilst Gavin already had just over 20 years’ experience as a financial adviser, it was whilst he was studying for his Certified Financial Planner qualification in 2013 that he realised there was a different way – one where advisers took their time to understand each client and understand their future plans and objectives. Today, Gavin is a Certified Financial Planner with over 30 years of experience and many satisfied clients. 

As a Fellow of the Personal Finance Society, the highest level of qualification available to members, Gavin has gained valuable experience in running his own practice, which he sold when he relocated to Essex to work as a partner in a local practice. However, in 2022 he decided to go solo again, specialising in providing independent advice to people who had found themselves alone through bereavement or relationship breakdown, a situation he understood all too well due to his own experience. His background and understanding of the needs of his clients has enabled him to develop a strong reputation for personalised, independent financial planning and advice that is highly tailored and brings stability at a time when all else seems uncertain.
