Stuart McDonald Financial Coach Northland

I first started in financial services over 25 years ago as a UK equivalent of an Authorised Financial Advisor. Long story short I ended up as Branch Manager with a financial services company before moving into a career in HR where I have spent the last few years. My last role was Head of HR NZ for Opus International Consultants Ltd. This was based in Auckland where I have worked for the last few years and commuted home to One Tree Point each weekend.

I made a decision that to get home I was going to start a business in Northland and that it had to be something that I really believe in. I now own and operate enableMe Northland and work as a Financial Personal Trainer helping people to get ahead financially. This suits me down to the ground as above all else I want to help people.

My family and I have lived in Northland since 2010 and this is our home now. I think Northland is amazing and if I can help people up here to get ahead financially and to make huge strides for themselves and their families then I will be very happy.

I believe that most of us have good intentions but don't get there for whatever reason. My job is to coach and cajole people to get educated, get their finances under control, create goals, make a plan and then work with them to nail that plan.

If you are starting out and saving for your first house, trying to get the mortgage paid off so that you can achieve other goals such as helping your kids out or create a nest egg to live a long and happy retirement then I can help.
