• Confident building lasting relationships and providing advice tailored to individual clients.
• Self-motivated, with the organisation and attention to detail needed to manage your own workload.
• Comfortable balancing client service with new business development.
• Acturis experience would be beneficial, but is not essential.

THE BENEFITS:

• Salary of 40,000 to 60,000, depending on experience.
