MARK DOLAN
Client Services Officer
Mark holds the role of Client Services Officer with Power Financial Planning Pty Ltd and has since 2015, balancing this with his role as a house dad. Prior to joining his wife, Mark owned and successfully ran a lawnmowing franchise for 4 years and was with the NAB as a Client Services Manager and a Business Lending Officer for 10 years. The best part for Mark working for Power Financial Planning is the development of relationships with clients and the close-knit team. Seeing and helping different people every day is one of the highlights of his day. Mark tries to impart to all existing and potential clients that “Everyone needs advice” from early career starters through to retirees.
It will not surprise Mark’s clients to know he is a bit of an adventure buff – he probably gets the ideas from his favourite movie series – The Bourne Identity. When not at work, assisting Judy or the kids, you will find him exploring the array of mountain road curves and scenery in and around Brisbane.
DOMINIC LAM

WILL NOLAN
Associate
Diploma of Financial Planning (Financial Services)
Will joined Power Financial Planning Team this month as an Associate. He has worked in various roles in financial planning for 3-4 years and is nearing completion of a Master of Financial Planning. He hopes to become an adviser by commencing a Professional Year (PY) with us. The PY is a legal requirement that all aspiring advisers must complete under the supervision of an experienced adviser.
Will will be learning the ropes at Power Financial Planning over the next 12- 15 months under Judy’s mentorship. He told us he was attracted to Power Financial Planning because of Judy’s commitment to sensible, straightforward advice delivered with a personal touch the big end of town can’t always replicate.
Will is married and has a baby boy. He plays social touch footy and is learning the guitar as time allows. Make sure to say hello the next time you’re in the office.
