Oran Drumgoole, QFA

I began working in the financial services industry in 2000 and completed a Degree in Business Management in 2002. I acquired valuable experience in New Ireland Assurance for over 4 years before joining John Drumgoole Life & Pensions.
During that time I gained a Diploma in Stockbroking and progressed in the Qualified Financial Adviser exams.
Following my role as a successful Financial Adviser in John Drumgoole Life & Pensions, I took the next natural step by setting up Drumgoole Financial Services Limited in 2013. In 2025 I successfully completed my study towards becoming a Certified Financial Planner (CFP®)

My objective is to provide sound, appropriate and transparent financial advice to my clients. While my profession is correctly recognised as a sales-orientated industry, I prefer to describe myself as an adviser whose job it is to give you financial guidance throughout the course of you and your family’s life.

Throughout my career, I have met many people who have been given incorrect or inappropriate advice for their needs and in many cases, it was due to a previous adviser (or financial institution) not having the correct amount of personal information to give objective and appropriate advice.

My goals are to encourage people to be actively involved in the planning of their financial needs and to understand what is important to their life and their future. This also applies to managing the financial requirements of my business clients where protection and forward planning is key to any company, big or small.
