Shane Gadsdon
Award-Winning Financial Adviser
FSP 225865
Shane joined the family business in 2012 and is now a Director and award-winning financial adviser at Discovery Financial Services. He specialises in personal and business insurance and KiwiSaver, helping individuals, families and business owners across New Zealand protect what matters most.
Shane's work has been recognised with a number of industry awards, including Young Gun of the Year in 2019, Independent Broker of the Year at the 2021 Insurance Business NZ Awards, and Australasian Elite Insurance Broker in 2026. He has also twice received Fidelity Life's Gordon Watson Award, named after the company's founder, which recognises advisers who champion customer-focused values.
For Shane, good advice starts with getting to know you. He takes the time to understand your situation, so the right cover is in place well before you need it. And if the time comes to make a claim, he'll be right there beside you.
I'm indebted to Shane and his team setting my family up with the right, kiwi saver, life, trauma and income protection insurance. My husband had a medical event earlier this year which meant he was in hospital for a couple of weeks - and because this injury was covered, we were able to still pay our bills throughout his recovery. During this stressful time for our family, Shane managed all the insurance claims seamlessly and communicated what we needed to sign when it was all done.
Thank you Shane, appreciate you and the team.
