About Our Founder
Anna Cooper
My way into the Financial Services industry wasn’t the normal route that most brokers take. After doing a Master’s in business management specializing in hospitality and tourism, I decided to go and work in an Estate Agents!
I always had a love for property and finance, so I coupled this with my service industry education , where my passion for a great client experience serves me well. I think my education was not totally wasted as through one of my many course placements I did meet my husband!
I learned a so much from a great family run Independent estate agency about teamwork and client service ,where the focus on helping people find their dream home really suited both my skillset and personality.
Out of the blue, I was approached with an opportunity in wholesale retail, which gave me the chance to run my own business and use my existing skillset and help me learn new ones. It was a great experience and although the hours were long, the sense of ownership was fantastic. I was made an offer I could not refuse and sold my share of the business, as I wanted a new challenge. I thought I would go back to the Estate agency world but having already had Financial Service experience , decided that was the path I wanted to follow.
To further my development, I took a role as a Broker Support Advisor with a Top 5 National lender. That gave me greater insight into the mechanics of lenders and how the industry looked from the inside. Two years later, I had joined a local mortgage brokerage to further hone my skills.
I established NEST, as I wanted to offer an Independent , whole of market , personalised service . This ethos is at the centre of my companies culture ‘ Where Clients Come First ‘.
I still have the travelling bug and now get to share my holidays with a very understanding and supportive husband. I was lucky enough to play sport at a National level, so have visited many of the world’s greatest cities, so our holidays now tend to be relaxing, sun worshipping kind! I am a great dog lover and love walking in the forest and at the seaside with my crazy spaniel Milo, where I can disappear into the nature.
