We took 5 minutes to chat to Andrew Featherstone, New Business Manager for DCM. Attracting new business for the service is Andrew’s key role and it seems his dogs are good at drumming up a lot of media interest too…
How long have you worked for DCM?
I’ve worked for DCM for 6 Years now.
What is the highlight of working for DCM?
It’s really exciting to work for a company that is genuinely on the up. The growth and improvement that I have seen since starting with DCM has been hugely impressive. I am very excited to see where future developments will lead to for the firm.
What does a typical day look like for you?
I like to start the day with a gym session at 6:30am then I head in to the office for 8am. First thing I do is check my e-mails and then I look through my follow-ups for the day. My mornings tend to be spent following up with clients and financial advisers. Afternoons tend to be working on new leads and client account cases. However this can change at the drop of a phone call!
Tell me something unusual about yourself?
My wife and I have two King Charles Spaniels (Bumble & Boogle). They have their own Instagram account and they have over 10,000 followers!
Game of Thrones or The Walking Dead?
Neither – I’d much rather watch Only Fools and Horses or Gillette Soccer Saturday! I don’t enjoy fantasy/fiction.
If you won the lottery, what’s the first thing you would do?
Open a DCM account of course! Then I’d buy a holiday home in Ibiza..
