Job Description

Wealth Management Associate
Berkswell (CV7)
£32,000-£35,000
3 days office 2 days home

A highly established Wealth Management firm is looking to appoint a Wealth Management Associate to support its advisory team.

This is a senior-level support position within a regulated wealth environment, providing advanced new business and ongoing servicing support - including exposure to higher net worth clients and more complex planning cases.

The firm operates to high professional standards, with a strong focus on client experience, technical accuracy and regulatory alignment.

You'll manage cases end-to-end, working closely with advisers and paraplanners to ensure the advice process runs efficiently and professionally.

Responsibilities include:
  • Managing new business cases and preparing submissions to paraplanners
  • Meeting preparation (new and ongoing advice)
  • Valuations, disinvestments, bereavements, fund switches
  • Bonds calculations, CGT reporting and use of Analytics
  • Supporting complex cases (pension transfers, IHT planning, protection)
  • Maintaining accurate client records in Salesforce
  • Submitting business via iBusiness in line with regulatory standards
  • Acting as escalation point for more complex client queries
  • Liaising with advisers, internal support functions and third parties

This is not entry-level administration. You'll need to be comfortable handling technical detail and higher value client arrangements.

What they're looking for
  • Experience within financial services support / wealth administration
  • Strong organisation and attention to detail
  • Confident written and verbal communication skills
  • Comfortable speaking directly with clients
  • Ability to manage multiple cases and deadlines
  • Strong numeracy skills
  • Professional, discreet and calm under pressure

Salesforce experience and regulatory knowledge are advantageous.

Structure
  • Berkswell office (CV7 7SL)
  • 3 days office / 2 days home
  • Permanent position

This would suit an experienced Financial Services Administrator or Client Support professional looking to step into a broader, more technical Wealth Management Associate role within a well-run Partner Practice.
