Blue Sky Financial Planning is thrilled to mark a significant milestone as Lesley Keets, our well-respected Chief Operating Officer (COO), approaches a year with our organisation.
Lesley’s dedication and fresh perspective have been instrumental in shaping the future of Blue Sky, and we are incredibly fortunate to have her expertise guiding our leadership team.
Joining us from a significant background in Marine Engineering, Lesley made the transition into the financial planning sector in 2023, bringing with her a wealth of experience and her great personal style.
Gary Neild, CEO of Blue Sky, commented, “Lesley’s recruitment was a pivotal moment as we embarked on our journey into Employee Ownership. A strong and vibrant management team is at the core of every successful company, and Lesley has undoubtedly been a driving force across the entire team, elevating us to even higher levels.”
Lesley’s impact on the business has been profound, nurturing a culture of collaboration, innovation and excellence. Her commitment to the Blue Sky ethos, coupled with her strategic vision for our future, has been instrumental in driving our ongoing growth and development.
Lesley added: “I am delighted to be part of Blue Sky. From day one, I was drawn to the strong people-focused culture that underpins everything we do. The unique benefits that an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT) brings to all stakeholders, particularly our clients, reflect a forward-thinking and creative approach to business. I am excited to continue working alongside Gary and the talented individuals who have contributed to Blue Sky’s success and to play a role in shaping its future.”
We extend our heartfelt thanks to Lesley for her continued dedication and look forward to the continued growth and prosperity she will bring to Blue Sky in the years to come.
