Bert Dugdale

If you’re looking at this photo wondering if you’ve ever met Bert, then you probably haven’t. With an infectious cackle, and no fear for telling it like it is, Bert has a bizarrely deep enthusiasm for aviation, genealogy and travelling.
He is one of RI Alderley’s advisors and proprietors, having joined RI Alderley in 2004 as a paraplanner. Bert has worked in the financial services industry since 2003 and was a civil engineer in Singapore for the 10 years prior.
