Who is Ben Sum?

Initially starting in hospitality, I transitioned into finance through a role as a paraplanner in a financial planning firm. Coincidentally, this is also when I first met Chris 13 years ago, at the start of his Australian finance journey too. Following that, I had explored various avenues including a stint in accounting and private wealth. I then co-founded a successful paraplanning business with my brother Ben and we wrote north of 5,000 strategy plans. A fortuitous opportunity led me back to collaborate with Chris in mortgage broking, which evolved into the dynamic enterprise known as Flint.

Why did you join Flint?

Wanting to provide advice which has long-term impact and significant to people’s lives and assist with what is generally the biggest transaction that they will make. Also collaborating with a team of like-minded souls which are more than just work associates. The sense of camaraderie and support is something I relish greatly and want to continue sharing with others.
