We will consider flexible working arrangements for any of our roles and also offer work place accommodations to ensure you have what you need to effectively deliver in your role.

  • Assist the current CAD planners with client contact, day to day tasks and/or sourcing solutions using our Centralised Investment Proposition and with assistance from the Paraplanning team.
  • With support from another planner, develop a professional approach to contacting clients on behalf of the team.

  • Conduct practice meetings to ensure you are comfortable and confident prior to taking over your first clients.

As an adviser you will:

  • Manage the retiring IFA relationship including the handover and onboarding of clients.
  • Service your clients by identifying, preparing and monitoring financial plans using cash flow modelling and our unique Annual Review packs.
  • Source solutions for any shortfalls identified and ensure they meet the clients needs and objectives.
  • Be confident meeting clients using video call software, telephone and in person. Where possible, most clients will be dealt with using remote solutions, however on occasions, you will have to travel to a location within the UK to complete F2F advice.
  • Develop and maintain good client relationships.
  • Develop and maintain good relationships with Paraplanning and Annual Review Services teams.
  • Assist with training newer team members as well as contributing to the teams development and evolution.
