Kamran Solanki's relationship with money started earlier than most. His dad retired young, and as his father's health declined his mum became the carer — which meant Kamran became the one making sure the family was covered. Budgeting, saving and making money work harder stopped being about him and started being about his parents too, and that sense of responsibility is what pushed him into financial services. It has never left him. After graduating with a First Class honours degree in economics, Kamran spent a few years as a risk analyst in the energy sector, helping SMEs navigate uncertainty and build strategies that held up under pressure. That grounding in analysis is what drew him toward wealth management, and he went on to complete his Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning. What genuinely excites him about the work is the variety, because every client is different, every solution is different, and you have to think on your feet. Inheritance Tax planning is the conversation he finds everyone is having right now, and he finds it fascinating precisely because the answers are rarely simple — how much control does someone want to keep, what does their family look like, and what are they actually trying to achieve? The nuance in those conversations is what keeps him energised. Kamran describes himself as a good listener first and a problem solver second. He takes the time to understand not just what a client wants to do, but why they want to do it and what the end goal really looks like for them. He is naturally extroverted and enjoys getting to know people, but he takes accountability just as seriously: if something isn't working, he wants to know, learn from it and fix it. He plans to keep these clients for the rest of his career, so the relationship has to be built on trust from day one. Outside of work, Kamran travels, trains and plays football. He has always gravitated toward a challenge, and he thinks that shapes how he approaches everything, including this job — show up, stay curious and ask the right questions, because it tends to work.
