Paraplanning Services for St. James’s Place Partners

Having worked within the financial services industry and alongside Partners at St. James’s Place since 2008, the team here at Virtual PA Services understands the importance of producing high quality, compliant SJP suitability letters.

In fact, we have grown to become one of the UK’s leading SJP Paraplanner suppliers, providing vital help to businesses that are seeking short- or longer-term assistance with their administrative processes on an outsourced basis.

Led by SJP Accredited Jade Clarke DipPFS, Cert CII (MP), our virtual paraplanning team consistently produces detailed and personalised reports for a wide range of products, whilst ensuring they comply with all regulations.

Collating plan information can be problematic, time consuming and sometimes simply frustrating. However, you can delegate this to our SJP Paraplanners with confidence, as these professionals have a wealth of knowledge on current and legacy products, enabling them to make easy work of navigating this tricky area!

You can also be sure that, in an ever-developing industry, we make it our mission to stay up to date with any changes within St. James’s Place and the wider community, ensuring our Paraplanners always have the knowledge they need to get the job done.
