Meet the team
Don Murphy QFA
I am a Qualified Financial Adviser (QFA) since 2008 and qualified as a Retirement Planning Adviser (RPA) afterwards. I love meeting people from all walks of life as we all continuously learn and adapt to face what (good and bad) is thrown at us in life. I aim to leave a client more financially educated with a clearer view of the value of the products that suit their circumstances at each meeting. We can then incorporate the most immediate needs into an overall financial plan to achieve their financial priorities. I worked in banking and as a Mortgage and Financial Adviser prior to setting up Absolute Finance in 2010. A very quick and busy 10 years have passed since.
Christy Santry QFA
I made the transition into the Financial Services in 2002. I’ve worked in all strands of the industry in the intervening nineteen years focusing in the main on Life, Pensions, Investments and Mortgages.
From preliminary meeting stage my personal objective is to establish a healthy business rapport with all clients. This is an industry where I see transparency of transaction and mutual loyalty as paramount.
Jayne Keohane QFA
A native of West Cork, Ireland I have previously worked in Property Sales, Letting and Management, Contact & Logistic Centres (Both in Ireland and Australia).
Having attained the QFA (Qualified Financial Advisor) qualification in 2009, I now work in the Financial Services sector which involves advising clients on how to achieve their financial goals and maintain a good lifestyle while doing so.
I am particularly interested in helping clients in the area of Family Protection along with Retirement Planning and Investments. I have worked with the Absolute Finance team since November 2015.
Shirley Goulding QFA
Having been in IT sales for years, I moved into the financial world in 2015, where I started with EBS. Once I had received my QFA qualification I quickly realised mortgages were where I wanted to be. Helping people plan towards their next homes or simply helping people save money on their mortgages is something I immediately enjoyed. When I joined Absolute Finance in September 2021 as the Mortgage Manager, I looked forward to the ability I now have to choose different lenders to help customers find the most appropriate provider for their needs. We help navigate through the mortgage and home purchase journey with best additional financial advice whilst looking at your overall financial situation throughout.
With my high level of professionalism, diplomacy, honesty, and advanced industry knowledge, I would be delighted to help you in any way that I can whether you are first time buyer, looking to trade up or down or are just looking to see if there is a better deal if considering switching lender.
