DJM Financial Planning was founded by its Director Dominic Middlemiss, following his graduation and appointment from the St. James's Place Adviser Academy. Prior to this he had a number of years’ experience in different roles in financial services working in all areas of financial advice firms and specialising in documenting advice for other financial advisers. He worked in a St. James's Place Practice before working in a whole of market Independent Financial Advice firm and felt that the service St. James's Place offers its clients, to be the most valuable he had seen, and wanted this for his own clients.

"I started DJM Financial Planning because I felt I could provide more value to my clients than I have been able to in previous roles. I want to build an environment of long-lasting relationships with clients to ensure they have peace of mind of their futures.

Working in financial services since graduating university has given me a huge amount of experience in helping clients from all different backgrounds, achieve financial security and their goals in life. The complexity of financial planning can be a daunting task, but I feel it has been overcomplicated and with simplification I can help everyone to understand their circumstances and the next steps they need to take. I am highly accomplished in numerous professional exams to ensure my industry knowledge is always up to date and giving clients peace of mind is at the heart of what I do." - Dom Middlemiss
