John and Tracey Hickey - Hunter Region

Authorised Rep No: 302389

Hello,

We’d like to introduce ourselves as Financial Advisers and your Freeman Fox Wealth Club Franchisees for the Hunter Region and North Coast of NSW.  

With our professional experience, our long-standing connection with Freeman Fox as investors and franchisees, and the ability to apply the proven track record of Freeman Fox’s exceptional wealth creation strategies at a personal level in our local regions, we have had an exciting time helping scores of clients in their push towards financial freedom.  

A little bit about us…

We collectively bring a combined experience of more than 30 years in the financial services sector to our clients in the Hunter and North Coast Regions.  This has included senior executive roles in some of the leading regional, national and international banking and investment organisations in Australia, as well as overseas.  Perhaps more importantly we bring a number of years of personal education and investing experience, using the highly effective strategies devised by Peter Spann and his team.

John is a former CEO of one of Australia’s largest industry superannuation funds, Auscoal Super.  He was also CEO of Newcastle Permanent Building Society, and spent several years with the ING Group in various general management roles, including responsibility for the national retail banking business.  Prior to that he held senior investment banking roles in Australia and the United States

John’s formal qualifications include a BA (Hons), a Graduate Diploma in Financial Services (Banking) and a Diploma in Financial Services (Financial Planning).

Tracey has also had an extensive career in the finance industry.  She has worked in management roles in such organisations as Commonwealth Bank, Chase AMP, Macquarie Bank and Bank of New Zealand, covering such areas as retail services, training and human resources.  She is also a qualified Mathematics teacher.

Tracey’s formal qualifications include a BA, Dip.Ed, and a Diploma of Financial Services (Financial Planning).

We operate our regional office with our support staff in Warners Bay, near Newcastle, and regularly travel throughout the region to meet with our clients.  We are currently further expanding to include full-time presence in the major regional centres of the North Coast, as well as the Upper Hunter region…. so watch this space!

This is a business we truly love, because of the daily opportunity we have to apply our skills and experience to people’s lives, and to provide hope for their futures through developing sound investment strategies and ongoing education, which go well beyond “standard” financial planning.

We look forward to meeting you and to see what we can do to help!

Regards,

John & Tracey
