What you will learn
”My name is Justin Pyne-James and I have been working at International Wealth & Prosperity since January 2018. After finishing my degree in 2017, I was worried that the big bad world wouldn’t be as easy as the varsity life but I’m glad to say that the transition from university to employment was made easier thanks to the assistance and training from the team at IWP. Working at this finance company has taught me a great deal with regards to investment platforms & strategies, financial reporting and administration. One of the best things about this company is the people. The director has been in the financial advisory industry for over 25 years – this experience has allowed him to gain an extensive knowledge of financial markets as well as an impressive network. Kate Metcalf is a dedicated administrator that is always willing to lend a helping hand. Cheryl Boulle has worked with the company for over 8 years and handles company finances and administration efficiently. These people and the offices add to a great working environment as there is a fair balance of hard work and fun. It has been an eye-opening experience and I am extremely grateful for this opportunity and I would highly recommend joining.”
