This is a genuinely people-focused business where decisions can be made quickly, ideas are welcomed and careers are built for the long term. With an average employee tenure of over 7 years (compared to an industry average of around 2.5 years), the culture speaks for itself.

• Liaising with providers, counter-parties and internal departments
• Ensuring FCA and regulatory compliance requirements are met
• Producing management information and reporting

Who We're Looking For

Essential:

• Previous experience administering investment and/or life assurance products
• Experience gained within a regulated financial services environment
• Strong numerical and analytical skills
• Excellent attention to detail
• Ability to work accurately within tight deadlines
• Strong communication and organisational skills
• Good Microsoft Excel and Word skills

Previous jobs could have been:

Or similar investment, wealth management, platform, client asset or financial services administration experience.

Why Join?

• Work with market-leading investment products and providers
• Join a supportive specialist team of five
• Strong employee retention and career stability
• Family-owned culture where your voice is heard
• Fast decision-making and less bureaucracy
• Long-serving, friendly and knowledgeable colleagues
• Convenient Central Hertfordshire location
