Laurentius van den Worm joined the Timeline Investment team in January 2022.

Laurentius has seven years of experience in the South African capital markets. In his previous role, he served as an investment analyst and financial consultant in the wealth management industry in South Africa, where he gained experience in various financial activities, including portfolio management, investment research, financial analysis, and wealth management.

Paul Schrijver works with financial services professionals , accountants and solicitors throughout the UK in his new role as head of Bond Sales for Canada Life. Prior to this Paul spent 22 years with Quilter/ Skandia as a specialist in Tax & Trust planning where he helped many advisors to create solutions for Individuals , corporates and Trustee clients.  Paul is a Chartered Financial planner and a fellow of the CII and has been in financial services for over 30 years.
Keith began his career in Financial Services working in Sales for Equity and Law. Since then he held senior sales management positions with businesses such as Scottish Life and AXA.  Prior to Novia, Keith was Regional Sales Manager for AXA covering the London area and helped the launch of their own WRAP. He has also boosted his experience by spending time within a large regional IFA practice.

Keith says that "at the beginning there was no doubt that Novia's reputation as a rapidly expanding and fast moving business was a big pull for me, but I think the key attraction of Novia was its genuine desire to offer Advisers more than just the minimum required of a wrap platform. Since then the continued innovation Novia has delivered proves to be key for both new and existing clients."
