Lee grew up in Keswick and Penrith then graduated from Huddersfield University with a degree in business law. He started a career in financial planning, joining a major insurance company and progressing to area sales manager and completing the professional Financial Planning Certificate. With a desire to offer independent financial advice, rather than being tied to the products of one company, Lee joined O'Reilly in 2000 as an independent financial adviser and became a partner in 2004. Lee is also now in charge of our other businesses O'Reilly Financial Services and Yoredale Investment Services.
