Five Wealth & Manchester Rugby Club

News & Insights

Rick Gosling

Those who work with me will know that I regularly sacrifice my weekends and evenings to training and playing for Manchester Rugby Club (as well as the odd resulting trip to A&E). I’m also involved in the running of the club through my role as Club Captain and I’m therefore delighted to announce Five Wealth as a new sponsor for the 2019/20 season.

Five Wealth’s sponsorship will help develop a club with a rich history of heritage and tradition, being one of the founding members of the RFU. The club currently has 3 men’s senior teams, a longstanding women’s team and a huge Minis and Juniors section. Manchester are currently receiving much welcome exposure as former Mini and Junior player Ben Spencer has been flown out to Japan to represent England in the World Cup final!

I don’t think it’s too tenuous a link to say that one of the key reasons I enjoy both working for Five Wealth and playing for Manchester is the team aspect and how everyone works together at both institutions.

Even the casual rugby fan watching the current World Cup will appreciate how critical it for every cog to be working to keep the teams performing at the highest level. Those who have been following England will note that Owen Farrell couldn’t take the headlines for his defence splitting passes and pinpoint kicking without Tom Curry and Sam Underhill putting in tireless graft all over the pitch. The forwards and backs both need to be successful in their own roles for a team to put in a complete performance.

In much the same way, Five Wealth is led by a Board of Directors with over 100 years’ industry experience, but is built upon a team of staff consisting of advisers, paraplanners, administrators and investment specialists. Whilst our advisers are at the centre of the financial planning relationship with our clients, they are supported by highly qualified personnel who each bring their own set of skills and technical knowledge. Whether it be performing analysis on regulatory changes, liaising with product providers, carrying out cash flow modelling, sitting down with the clients, or any number of other tasks, everyone at Five Wealth is working together to ultimately ensure the service we provide is one we can be proud of.

Manchester’s 1st XV are currently vying for promotion from the North 2 West league and everyone at Five Wealth wishes them the best of luck for the remainder of the season.
