Andrew Macintyre
Director and Chartered Financial PlannerAndrew at work
After more than twenty years in senior financial services and wealth management roles, Andrew was invited to join St. James’s Place Wealth Management as a Partner and establish his own Practice in 2018. At Macintyre Wealth Management, his role as a director involves working with you to create a bespoke financial plan that matches your personal goals and help to ensure that your plans stay on track over time.
The Practice has grown steadily since 2018 and the work never stops. Andrew is actively involved with clients on a day-to-day basis, developing financial plans and formulating the right advice.
Passionate about the power of financial planning to transform lives, Andrew is a “lifelong learner” and is among the financial planning profession’s most highly qualified practitioners. He has featured six times in the VouchedFor Guide to the UK’s top-rated financial advisers.
Andrew at home
Setting up Macintyre Wealth Management coincided with a big lifestyle move for Andrew and family, away from the outskirts of Edinburgh, to live in the rural countryside near Perth that the family loves. Outside work, you’ll find Andrew enjoying the outdoors around Pitlochry, fishing, sailing, or taking walks with the family dog.
He is an active member of Loch Tummel Sailing Club and likes to get out on the water whenever he can.
Andy is a keen cook who loves to entertain.
