Andrew Faulkner

Before joining the financial services industry, Andrew had a wide range of professional experience which he often brings to bear on his work with Barchester Green. Forestry, management consultancy and property development all feature large on his CV. In the latter connection he gained a good deal of awareness of the sustainable building materials sector, which connected with his earlier experience in forestry.

For a time, he was an actor and is still recognised in the street for his 1998 Yakult TV commercial! A two-month spell in Coronation Street around the same time, as Sally Webster’s divorce lawyer also raised his profile. But, he says, this was all a long time ago, in another life.

Married to Margaret, with a three-year-old daughter, he is particularly interested in inheritance tax planning, family and business protection as well as investment planning.

His particular focus is on the environment and human rights.
