Timm Byrne
Financial Planner – NSW
‘I’m the second generation of Byrne financial planners. It’s in the blood.’
Timm wants the CareSuper members he works with to be able to live each day to the fullest. He believes great financial advice isn’t about what you have, but what you plan to do with it.
Timm focuses on asking members a range of ‘why’ and ‘what if’ questions to fully understand their financial situation, needs and goals. From there he uses his knowledge of super strategies, like contribution methods and investment choices, to help members build an effective plan for the future.
Timm started his career in 2008, and is experienced across a wide range of financial planning areas. He holds an Advanced Diploma of Financial Planning and is studying a Bachelor of Commerce (Financial Planning).
A singer-songwriter, Timm’s a vocal advocate for collaboration – both in a jam session, or in bouncing strategy ideas back and forth with colleagues and clients. On the weekends you’ll find him running along the coast, at a gig with friends, or hanging out with his wife and pug Baxter on the beach.
