Bringing experience and vision to LIBF
Sally joins LIBF, part of Walbrook Institute London, following four successful years on the CISI's senior leadership team. At CISI she led the growth of financial planning, the Certified Financial Planner™ (CFP™) qualification, and the CISI Educational Trust programmes and latterly the wider UK business development teams. Prior to the CISI, Sally worked at Robur Wealth Management, a partner practice to SJP, having started her early career in fashion.
In this brand-new role, she will be supporting LIBF’s Director of Financial Services, John Somerville, on the growth of the institute’s financial services portfolio. In addition to working with financial services firms of all sizes to raise awareness of LIBF qualifications, Sally will work closely with Walbrook Institute London’s higher education team to promote the wider financial planning profession to younger people.
Sally Plant said: "I am absolutely delighted to be joining Walbrook Institute London at such an exciting time in this new role as LIBF Relationship Director for Financial Services.
“I was particularly interested in this role because of the institute’s long history and deep understanding of financial planning educational needs, combined with its more recent developments into online higher education and EdTech.
Walbrook is a fast-paced organisation which is making significant investment into its degree, apprenticeship and LIBF professional education courses - there is huge scope to grow, and the structured learning enables a truly bespoke client offer. I am thrilled to be joining and working not just with professional education clients and learners, but also helping students and apprentices taking degree programmes to navigate their career pathways in banking and finance
