Today, Halcyon is a testament to the power of lasting friendship and shared vision. What began as a bond forged in the school classroom and on the sports field has developed into a successful business that continues to this day.
In 1988, schoolboy friends Richard Tebbutt and Gary Briceland decided to combine their shared values and complementary strengths and founded Halcyon Financial Services. A trusted brokerage offering personalised strategies and guidance to help individuals and businesses achieve their financial goals.
As Halcyon continued to evolve and expand its offerings, the late Andrew Sokolich, also a classmate, joined in 1994. He spearheaded the short-term division with his unique expertise, commitment to excellence and delivering results. Andrew was a driving force within the organisation and his legacy continues to be honoured within Halcyon as an enduring reminder of his friendship and commitment.
Claire Barnes became part of the Short-Term Division in 1996. Her steadfast work ethic and commitment to service excellence propelled her upward to the role of Halcyon Short-Term Director. In addition, she fulfills the crucial role of Operational Manager, overseeing the smooth operation of Halcyon’s functions.
Welcoming another school friend, Fred Darke became a valued team member in 1997. Starting in the Medical Aid Division, Fred’s journey led him to become a Director of Direct Sales, where funeral cover was introduced to the service portfolio. This strategic move allowed Halcyon to offer a comprehensive suite of services under one roof, showcasing the company’s commitment to holistic client care.
After 36 years, Halcyon remains a beacon of service excellence and reliability within the industry. As they continue to the next chapter of Halcyon’s story Richard, Gary, Claire and Fred are driven by a shared vision of growth, innovation and positive impact. Together, they pave the way for the company’s continued success and advancement.
We value people first, processes second, and build our business around lasting relationships, mutual confidence and trust. Operating for over 25 years, we at Halcyon desire to meet the financial planning needs of our clients with unprecedented excellence.
