Welcome to the New Leaf Family.

I started this business in 2004 with a passion for providing independent financial advice. I believe it is important that advisers value their independence and offer a full holistic service to their clients.

We have 250 advisers giving advice across all areas of the financial services sector. This includes residential mortgages, equity release, personal and business protection, pensions, investments and a full estate planning service.

We have a belief that if you are in this industry, you have the following viewpoint:

You are a business owner that happens to be in financial services.

This is a business that can make you wealthy and can provide you with many years of employment.

That's why we are called New Leaf, because we help all comers turn over a new leaf in their lives.

Once you are with us you can attend my blueprint day that will enable you to establish your game plan for the next 10 years.

Join New Leaf - the family business that has YOU at the centre of everything.

Mark Hobbs, Network Principal

Owned and managed by the Hobbs Family, you are sure of a friendly welcome when you come to visit us.

To this day, our core principle, is to train new entrants into the industry. We truly take away the compliance and risk of your business so that you can take care of your clients first.

In 2017, we invested in the technology infrastructure used by our advisers by introducing the system 360 Lifecycle. Advisers now have tools that help them with managing prospects; interacting with clients securely; maintaining efficient compliance processes; letter writing and running marketing campaigns.

As a member of our network we offer training up to level 6, Chartered status. This includes weekly online sessions with guest speakers from within our group and the wider Industry. We are a recognised Learning Support Provider of the London Institute of Banking & Finance.

As a firm with a strong Christian foundation, we utilise our profits to support numerous charities such as Acres of Diamonds Shoeburyness Evangelical Church; The Connection at St Martin-in-the-Field; Southend Hospital; The Christian Bookshop; Family Mosaic and HARP (the homeless charity for Southend) to name a few.

Our motto for many years has been that advisers "should be with a network that knows your name."

Don't become just another number; join us and you won't regret it!
