Advice That Starts With Your Story

Han Spendlove founded Mandalay Wealth Management with one conviction: that great financial advice has to start with a genuine understanding of the person sitting across the table — their goals, their values, and the life they're working toward.

With years of experience working with professionals, executives, business owners, and families across Australia, Han brings a structured yet deeply personal approach to every client relationship. You work directly with Han — not a team of rotating advisers, not a call centre, not a generic template. Every strategy is built around your situation.

Han's approach is built on patience, clarity, and long-term thinking. Whether you are navigating a major financial transition — a business sale, a career change, approaching retirement — or simply want to make sure your wealth is working as hard as it can, Han takes the time to understand the full picture before making any recommendation.

Outside of work, Han is passionate about the communities Mandalay's clients come from — Western Sydney, the Hills District, and beyond. That local understanding adds another dimension to the advice: knowing the context that shapes your financial decisions.

Warmth, Experience, and Genuine Care

Associate Adviser

Rosy Bresnev brings a rare combination of warmth and experience to every client relationship. As an Associate Adviser at Mandalay Wealth Management, Rosy works with clients across the full spectrum of financial advice — from retirement planning and investment strategy through to insurance and risk — always with a focus on what genuinely matters to the person in front of her.

With a degree in finance and financial planning, and years of experience behind her, Rosy has the technical grounding to navigate complex financial situations with confidence. But what clients consistently notice is how comfortable she makes them feel. She listens carefully, explains things clearly, and takes the time to make sure every recommendation truly fits the life a client is building — not just the numbers on a page.

Rosy has cultivated long-standing relationships with many of the clients she works with, and that trust is something she takes seriously. Knowing someone's financial story over years — not just a snapshot — means the advice she gives is always grounded in real context and genuine understanding.

Rooted in the Western Sydney and Hills District community, Rosy shares the same local values that define Mandalay's approach. She understands the people these communities are made of, and that understanding shapes the way she works with every client who walks through the door.

The Backbone of the Client Experience

Client Services Manager

Jacqui Chia is the backbone of the Mandalay client experience. With over eight years at Mandalay Wealth Management, Jacqui brings a level of institutional knowledge, reliability, and professionalism that clients have come to depend on.

As Client Services Manager, Jacqui oversees the full client journey — from initial onboarding and compliance through to ongoing communication, workflow management, and everything in between. She is the person who ensures that the high standard of service Mandalay is known for is consistently delivered, every single time. Nothing falls through the cracks.

What sets Jacqui apart is the depth of the relationships she has built over the years. Many of Mandalay's clients have worked with her for the better part of a decade — and that continuity matters. She understands their history, their preferences, and the way they like to be looked after. For many clients, Jacqui is their first call.

Polished, precise, and genuinely invested in the people she works with, Jacqui brings a calm authority to every interaction. Her work behind the scenes is what allows Han to focus on delivering the best possible financial advice — confident that every client is in excellent hands.

The Person Behind the Scenes

Adviser Support

Travis Spendlove joined Mandalay Wealth Management with a clear purpose: to help clients feel supported at every step of their financial journey — not just in the meeting room, but in everything that happens behind the scenes.

As Adviser Support, Travis works closely alongside Han to ensure that every client experience is seamless, responsive, and personal. From onboarding and paperwork through to meeting preparation, research, and day-to-day communication, Travis is often the person making sure things move forward without the client having to chase. His attention to detail and commitment to getting things right means clients can trust that their affairs are being looked after carefully.

Growing up in Western Sydney and the Hills District, Travis brings the same local understanding that sits at the heart of Mandalay's approach. He knows the communities Mandalay's clients come from — and that context matters.

With a genuine passion for investing and financial markets, Travis is building his expertise from the ground up, combining hands-on experience with a commitment to continued learning in the field. Being part of a family business means the values that define Mandalay — patience, integrity, and long-term thinking — aren't just professional standards. For Travis, they're personal.

Han's Approach to Advice

Not a philosophy statement — a description of how every engagement at Mandalay actually runs.

01

Understand Before Advising

Han never starts with a product or a solution. Every engagement begins with a deep discovery process — understanding your income, goals, obligations, risk tolerance, and what "financial security" actually means to you personally.

02

Personalised, Not Templated

No two clients receive the same advice. Strategies are built from the ground up to reflect specific circumstances — not adapted from a generic model to satisfy a compliance requirement.

03

Clarity Over Complexity

Financial advice should leave you feeling informed and confident. Every recommendation is explained in plain language — what it is, why we’re suggesting it, what it costs, and what happens if you do nothing. No jargon, no vague assurances.

04

A Relationship Built on Trust

Mandalay’s clients are people Han knows by name, whose financial situations he understands in depth, and whose success he’s genuinely invested in — not just at the next review, but over the full arc of their financial lives.

What Clients Say About Han

The most meaningful measure of good advice is the difference it makes in people's lives.

“

Han was the first adviser who actually looked at our whole picture — super, investments, insurance, the lot. We came away with a strategy that made sense, and for the first time we weren’t second-guessing every financial decision we made.

Sarah M.
Castle Hill, NSW
“

We’d had another adviser for years who seemed fine on paper, but we never really understood what our money was doing or why. Working with Han is completely different — everything is explained, everything has a reason.

David & Karen L.
Norwest Family
“

Running a business makes your finances complicated in ways most advisers don’t fully grasp. Han understood the interplay between the business structure, my income, and my personal investments from the very first meeting. The advice he gave would have been impossible to get from a generalist.

Michael T.
Hills District Business Owner

The best relationships start with a conversation.
