Simon Benning

Managing Director

Simon is the Managing Director of Stiles & Company Financial Services Limited and established the Practice in 2002.

Simon joined the Insurance and Financial Services industry in August 1979 having left school with little direction and not sure of the industry within which he wanted to work. After all these years he is now confident he got it right from the outset and has enjoyed a vast amount of variety and experience in many different capacities, and within the confines of some very prominent and high profile industry names in both an administrative and advisory capacity.

Simon made his decision to set up Stiles & Company Financial Services Limited having been part of a larger firm of advisers who had become more money orientated and less client focused. Simon was unable to comply with the business ethics and produced his own mission statement one night and as a result Stiles & Company Financial Services Limited was born shortly afterwards.

Simon by definition is totally client focused, their needs and requirements are absolutely paramount and he will go to considerable lengths and more often than not, go beyond the call of duty to meet those needs. It is these ethics and priorities that are instilled into all those who are part of what has become a highly successful and productive Financial Services Practice.

These sentiments are endorsed by the fact that all business received by Stiles & Company Financial Services Limited is from referrals, or the wide range of professional connections that have been established over the years.

Simon is married to Anna, unfortunately without a family, but his two dogs provide him with adequate compensation, and he is a frequent visitor to his holiday home in Spain where he goes to recharge his batteries.
