Job description

We are partnering with a highly regarded financial services firm to recruit an experienced Financial Services Administrator. This is a rare opportunity to join a business that doesn't hire frequently, offering a genuinely supportive environment where you'll be a valued part of a close-knit team.

If you're currently feeling like just a number in a larger organisation, this role offers something different: real ownership, variety in your day-to-day work, and the chance to build meaningful relationships.

Why This Role Stands Out

This isn't just another administrative position. You'll work alongside experienced advisers in a firm known for its personal approach and long-standing client relationships. With an evolving client base, particularly in areas such as income drawdown and ongoing servicing, you'll play a key role in delivering a high-quality, tailored service.

As part of a small, collaborative team, your voice will be heard, your contribution recognised, and your development supported. The business offers a refreshing alternative to larger corporate environments, with a strong focus on teamwork, flexibility, and long-term growth.

Key Responsibilities

• Building and maintaining strong client relationships through regular contact and support
• Liaising with providers, lenders, and solicitors to progress cases efficiently
• Assisting with product and fund research
• Producing cashflow models
• Supporting the preparation of suitability reports (training available if required)
• Managing new business processing through to completion
• Ensuring all client files are accurate, compliant, and up to date
• Handling mortgage documentation and coordinating applications
• Supporting ongoing client servicing, including changes and withdrawals
• Managing client reviews and preparing review suitability letters
• Maintaining and updating CRM systems
• Handling post, calls, and general administrative duties
• Supporting wider team functions, including IT coordination when required
• Maintaining CPD and attending relevant industry seminars

About You

• Previous experience within a financial advisory practice is essential
• Strong knowledge of pensions and investments administration
• Mortgage experience is advantageous but not essential
• Highly organised with excellent attention to detail
• A team player who thrives in a collaborative environment
• Confident communicator with a client-focused approach
• Enthusiastic, proactive, and keen to develop

What's on Offer

• Competitive salary (depending on experience)
• Pension scheme
• A genuinely friendly, close-knit team environment
• Opportunity to grow and develop with the business

If you're looking for a role where you can step away from rigid corporate structures and join a business that truly values its people, we'd love to hear from you.
