Steven Sprague, head of the Tilney Telephone Advice Service, says: “Providing specialist advice to clients over the telephone is a very important part of our business and tailors specifically to those clients who do not require ongoing face-to-face service. I am delighted to welcome these two talented individuals to our team.”
