As a result, there is excellent scope for long-term career progression and the opportunity to play a key role in shaping the future of the business.

The Opportunity

This is a hybrid position combining hands-on technical administration with team leadership responsibilities. You will provide high-level support to Financial Advisers while also taking on a supervisory role within the client support function.

  • Assisting with the growth and structure of the team as the business expands
  • Ensuring high standards of client service and compliance are maintained

  • A good technical understanding of financial planning products and processes
  • Previous experience supporting or mentoring team members (desirable)
