Job Description Summary

Unit Linked Fund Operations Assistant

**Job Description**:
12 Month Fixed Term Contract, Edinburgh

We're Aegon. We're a company of ambitious, positive problem-solvers who get things done. We're a team, not a group of individuals. Collaboration is our life force and we believe it's our duty to leave things better than we find them.

We help people live their best lives. We help them with the big stuff, for the moments that matter: Pensions, Savings, Investments.

We are looking for someone to support the Unit Linked Fund Management & Control department in day-to-day business as usual activities. You will have to be highly organised and be able to liaise within a team at an administrative and fund manager level, you will play a vital role in delivering a number of initiatives within our organisation.

As the Unit Linked Fund Operations Assistant responsibilities will include ensuring trade orders are placed electronically and/or by fax for the Aegon Insured fund universe. You will also have to calculate and review box positions in a timely manner.

Adhering to risk management will be a crucial element of the role and it will be important for you to maintain our risk and control framework on a consistent basis to meet regulatory obligations.

We’d love to hear from you if you have any of the following?:

- An understanding of external fund links processing trading, pricing, fees/charges and valuations
- Knowledge of investment or insured back-office processes including fund accounting and unit pricing
- High level of experience using Microsoft Excel
- Knowledge of systems such as - Unisure and Mainframe
- A desire to understand and offer solutions to increase efficiency

It’d also be great - but not essential - if you’ve got:

- An understanding of reporting price errors
- Awareness and can react to insured fund events requirements

What’s in it for you?
- A competitive salary from £24,160 - £30,200, depending on the experience you can bring
- A non-contributory pension between 8%-12%
- A discretionary bonus, depending on personal and company performance
- 34 days leave per year (including bank holidays, pro-rated for part-time)

We know our staff have busy lives and commitments outside work, so we work flexibly where possible and have a hybrid approach to office working (typically 2 days in the office per week, 3 from home).

We also offer private medical cover, life assurance, critical illness cover, enhanced parental leave and a variety of lifestyle benefits to help our staff live their best lives, including retail discount vouchers, cycle2work scheme, subsidised restaurant and online GP appointments.
