What is on offer:

  • Our client is open and flexible on what basic they can offer depending on the person, reflective of the experience and quality required for this role
  • Discretionary bonus based on production and KPIs, including service quality and compliance standards
  • The opportunity to join one of the UK’s leading wealth management businesses
  • Warm client introductions from an established Investment Management team
