Old pensions from old jobs, brought into one clear view.

Most people I meet hold two, three, sometimes five pensions from former employers — and no real picture of what they add up to. My free Pension Health Check gives you a plain-English answer, with no obligation attached.

How it works

Three conversations. No jargon, no pressure.

This isn't a sales call. The first conversation is about understanding what you hold and what retirement should look like — then I'll tell you plainly whether I can help.

I

Answer four short questions

The check above tells me enough to make our first call genuinely useful, rather than starting from nothing.

II

A relaxed, unhurried call

Twenty to thirty minutes, by phone or video, at a time that suits you — mapping out what you hold and what your options are.

III

A clear picture, in writing

You'll know where you stand. If it makes sense to work together, costs are set out plainly before you commit to anything.

Who you'll be speaking to

I'm Joe — independent, not a salesman.

I've spent my career helping people across Scotland make sense of their pensions: tracing old workplace schemes, weighing up whether to consolidate, and building retirement income that actually holds up.

Independent means I answer to you, not a provider. Local means when we speak, you're speaking to me — not a call centre reading from a script.

Before you begin

Questions people usually ask first

Is this really free?

Yes. The check and first conversation cost nothing and carry no obligation. Any fees are agreed with you in writing before work begins — you'll never be surprised by a charge.

Do I have to combine my pensions?

No — and sometimes you shouldn't. Some older schemes carry guarantees that would be lost on transfer. Part of my job is telling you when leaving things be is the right answer.

What if I've lost track of an old pension?

Very common. Tracing pensions from previous employers is part of the process — people are often pleasantly surprised by what turns up.

Am I too far from Glasgow?

Not at all. I work with clients across Scotland, mostly by phone or video, at whatever time suits — including evenings.

The value of investments and the income from them can fall as well as rise, and you may get back less than you invested. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. Transferring out of a defined benefit pension scheme is unlikely to be in the best interests of most people. A pension is a long-term investment and the fund value may fluctuate. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and may change in future.
