Aurora Financial Services was established in 2013 by Mark Ingham. After working in the industry for over 16 years, Mark wanted to offer advice in all aspects of financial planning whether that be purchasing your perfect home, saving towards that ultimate goal, protecting your loved ones, or planning for the retirement you deserve. Aurora can guide you through every stage of your financial life to help you achieve your dreams, goals, and objectives.

To help enhance the client offering Mark accepted an invitation to join St. James's Place in 2019 which has allowed the company to grow yet still keep the personal friendly touch that makes the service from Aurora so unique. Our clients are our family.

Aurora covers not only the local area to Bradford where the head office is based but covers the whole of the UK, distance is not an issue.

Mark started his career in the financial services industry after studying at Nene College, Northampton where he attained his degree in Combined Studies, majoring in Law and Sociology. From 1997 to 1999, Mark worked at Prudential as a trainee financial adviser. In 1999 Prudential closed its direct sales force and Mark moved to Allied Dunbar.

In 2003, Mark wanted to have greater financial control and started his own estate agency and mortgage broking business as a directly appointed firm and in 2008 Mark moved his business to Openwork and continued to offer his clients full holistic financial planning.

In 2013 Mark rebranded and Aurora Financial Services was born. In 2019, Mark was invited to join St. James's Place, a move which would benefit his clients who can now choose from the carefully selected range of products and services available through St. James's Place, including the distinctive approach to investment management.

The value of an investment with St. James's Place will be directly linked to the performance of the funds you select and the value can therefore go down as well as up. You may get back less than you invested.
