Reflecting on Steve’s contribution to the firm, Audit Director Ben Horner shared his appreciation for Steve’s leadership and influence.

“There is immense gratitude for Steve's leadership and contribution to McConachie Stedman - not only to the long-term growth of the financial planning team, but to the growth of the firm as a whole. Steve's ability to see the broader picture and maintain a clear vision has always been a real strength of his, and I have personally appreciated the time we spent working together on the firm."

While Steve will be stepping away from day-to-day advice, McConachie Stedman remains committed to providing the same high standard of service clients have come to expect.
