Client & Adviser Support Team Leader - Financial Planning £35,000 - £40,000 Wealth Management South West (Hybrid / Multi-site) Corsham (preferred) / Shaftesbury / Poole / Sherborne In a wealth management business, adviser capacity is only as strong as the support function behind it. This role sits at the centre of that delivery model. You'll lead the financial planning administration and PA support team responsible for enabling Wealth Consultants to focus on client relationships, confident that all servicing, new business, and meeting preparation is being handled accurately, consistently, and on time. This is a hands-on leadership role combining operational oversight, people management, and service accountability. It is also intentionally open in terms of background - deep financial services experience is not essential. What matters is your ability to run a structured, high-performing support function where accuracy, prioritisation, and service standards are consistently maintained. What you'll be doing You'll take ownership of the day-to-day running of the adviser support and financial administration function, ensuring work is appropriately prioritised, allocated, and delivered within agreed service levels. This includes oversight of all core administration activity such as new business processing, policy servicing, valuations, transfers, withdrawals, and ongoing client maintenance, alongside PA-style support for advisers including diary management, meeting preparation, and follow-up actions. You'll manage competing priorities across multiple advisers and workstreams, ensuring service levels are maintained even when demand fluctuates, and acting as the escalation point for more complex or time-sensitive issues. A key part of the role is maintaining quality and regulatory standards across all output, ensuring documentation and processes meet FCA expectations and internal governance requirements. You'll also play a central role in improving how the function operates - identifying inefficiencies, simplifying workflows, and supporting the rollout of better systems and processes. Leadership scope You'll manage a team of 8-12, with responsibility for: Work allocation and prioritisation Performance management and 1-2-1s Coaching and development MI covering service levels, quality, and capacity You'll report into the Head of Client Experience and Support and work closely with advisers, paraplanners, compliance, and senior leadership. What we're looking for You'll likely come from financial planning administration, team lead / deputy, or a structured operational support environment. However, strong transferable experience from other regulated or service-led sectors will also be considered. Most important is your leadership capability - experience managing or supervising a team, setting expectations, and maintaining accountability in a fast-paced environment. You should be highly organised, comfortable managing multiple priorities, and confident maintaining standards in a regulated setting. A process-minded approach and a clear focus on continuous improvement will be key. A background in St. James Place (SJP) environments would be relevant but is not essential. Practical details £35,000 - £40,000 depending on experience Hybrid working across multiple offices Corsham is the preferred base location, with travel to other offices as required Full-time role with flexibility considered Full UK driving licence required

Technical Administrator - Financial Planning £26,000 - £30,000 Financial Planning Office-based Canford Cliffs / Sherborne In financial planning, the client experience is shaped long before an adviser speaks to a client. It is built in the administration - in how quickly cases are processed, how accurately information is handled, and how consistently advisers are supported behind the scenes. This role sits inside that function. You'll provide core administrative support to advisers and paraplanners, ensuring client cases are processed correctly, documentation is complete, and applications progress smoothly from submission through to completion. It's a role where accuracy, organisation, and consistency matter as much as pace. This is an office-based position, working from either the Canford Cliffs or Sherborne office. What you'll be doing You'll be responsible for the day-to-day administrative workflow that supports financial planning advice. This includes processing incoming post, scanning and allocating documentation, and ensuring client records are kept accurate and up to date across internal systems. You'll prepare files for advisers by collating research, illustrations, compliance documentation, and supporting materials ahead of recommendations being made. You'll also support new business processing - completing and submitting applications, tracking progress with providers, and ensuring cases move efficiently through to completion. Where issues arise, you'll liaise with advisers, clients, and third parties to keep everything on track. A key part of the role is maintaining data integrity and ensuring all post-sale requirements are completed, including client identification checks, application forms, and ongoing record updates. You'll also assist with preparing valuations and maintaining review systems where required. Alongside core administration, you'll provide general office support to advisers and practice leadership, contributing to the smooth running of day-to-day operations. What we're looking for You'll have previous experience in an administrative or business support role, ideally within financial services or a related regulated environment such as pensions, investments, insurance, or banking administration. You don't need to be highly technical, but you do need to understand the basics of financial products and how client servicing processes work in practice. Strong organisation, attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple tasks accurately are essential. You should be comfortable working to deadlines, handling competing priorities, and maintaining quality under pressure. Equally important is attitude - a professional, reliable approach with a willingness to learn and develop within a structured financial planning environment. Strong communication skills, basic Microsoft Office capability, and the ability to work effectively as part of a team are key to success in this role. Experience in a St. James's Place (SJP) environment is preferred but is not essential Practical details £26,000 - £30,000 depending on experience Office-based (Canford Cliffs or Sherborne) Full-time role

Technical Support Team Leader - Financial Planning £35,000 - £40,000 South West (Hybrid / Multi-site) Shaftesbury / Corsham / Poole / Sherborne In financial planning, client experience is only as strong as the support behind it. Annual reviews, bereavement cases, and technical queries don't resolve themselves - they depend on accurate, timely and consistent delivery from a capable support function. This role sits at the centre of that operation. You'll lead the teams responsible for annual reviews, bereavement administration and technical support for advisers and clients. It's a blend of people leadership, technical oversight and operational control across a regulated advice environment. What you'll be doing You'll take ownership of day-to-day delivery across three core areas: annual review production, bereavement case management, and technical adviser support. That includes allocating work, managing performance, and ensuring output is accurate, compliant and delivered within agreed timescales. You'll act as escalation point for complex cases spanning pensions, investments, protection and estate administration, working closely with advisers and compliance to resolve issues and maintain standards. A key part of the role is maintaining consistency under pressure - ensuring quality doesn't slip as volumes fluctuate. You'll also be expected to identify inefficiencies in process and actively improve how the function operates, not just manage it. Leadership scope You'll manage a team of 5-10, with responsibility for: 1-2-1s and performance management Coaching and development Work allocation and workflow oversight MI reporting on performance, turnaround times and quality You'll report into the Head of Client Experience and Support and work closely with advisers, paraplanners and compliance. What we're looking for You'll need experience in financial planning, wealth management or a closely related regulated environment. This could come from technical support, paraplanning or compliance - but you must understand how advice firms operate and how client servicing is delivered end-to-end. You should also bring: Experience managing or mentoring people (including 1-2-1s) Strong technical understanding of pensions, investments, protection and estates Confidence handling complex or escalated cases Good working knowledge of FCA-regulated environments Strong attention to detail and structured thinking A background in St. James Place (SJP) environments would be relevant but is not essential. Practical details £35,000 - £40,000 depending on experience Hybrid working with multi-site coverage Preferred base: Shaftesbury (travel to other offices required) Full-time or part-time considered

Technical Administrator - Financial Planning £26,000 - £30,000 Financial Planning Office-based Corsham / Shaftesbury In financial planning, the client experience is shaped long before an adviser speaks to a client. It is built in the administration - in how quickly cases are processed, how accurately information is handled, and how consistently advisers are supported behind the scenes. This role sits inside that function. You'll provide core administrative support to advisers and paraplanners, ensuring client cases are processed correctly, documentation is complete, and applications progress smoothly from submission through to completion. It's a role where accuracy, organisation, and consistency matter as much as pace. This is an office-based position, working from either the Corsham or Shaftesbury office. What you'll be doing You'll be responsible for the day-to-day administrative workflow that supports financial planning advice. This includes processing incoming post, scanning and allocating documentation, and ensuring client records are kept accurate and up to date across internal systems. You'll prepare files for advisers by collating research, illustrations, compliance documentation, and supporting materials ahead of recommendations being made. You'll also support new business processing - completing and submitting applications, tracking progress with providers, and ensuring cases move efficiently through to completion. Where issues arise, you'll liaise with advisers, clients, and third parties to keep everything on track. A key part of the role is maintaining data integrity and ensuring all post-sale requirements are completed, including client identification checks, application forms, and ongoing record updates. You'll also assist with preparing valuations and maintaining review systems where required. Alongside core administration, you'll provide general office support to advisers and practice leadership, contributing to the smooth running of day-to-day operations. What we're looking for You'll have previous experience in an administrative or business support role, ideally within financial services or a related regulated environment such as pensions, investments, insurance, or banking administration. You don't need to be highly technical, but you do need to understand the basics of financial products and how client servicing processes work in practice. Strong organisation, attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple tasks accurately are essential. You should be comfortable working to deadlines, handling competing priorities, and maintaining quality under pressure. Equally important is attitude - a professional, reliable approach with a willingness to learn and develop within a structured financial planning environment. Strong communication skills, basic Microsoft Office capability, and the ability to work effectively as part of a team are key to success in this role. Experience in a St. James's Place (SJP) environment is preferred but is not essential Practical details £26,000 - £30,000 depending on experience Office-based (Corsham or Shaftesbury) Full-time role
