Experience in a business development role in any sector is essential.

This is a predominantly office based role, focussed on creating new local sales opportunities from multiple channels for our client-facing financial advisers.

The successful candidate will report directly to the global Business Development Director, and also to the regional head, whilst also liaising with a team of client facing financial advisers to whom you will distribute any appointments created.

Continuously source and develop your own new prospects in the region

Academic decoration is a plus, but not essential. Applicants must be able to demonstrate self-discipline, strong customer relationship skills, an excellent and confident telephone manner, and a flair for sales. Again, experience in or exposure to the financial services sector would be preferred.

The telephone will be a major tool of your job. If you are not a confident and engaging telephone communicator then this will not be for you. For the most part, you will be the first voice that prospective new clients will hear, and in many cases the first person they will meet, and it is essential that you are comfortable in embracing that responsibility.

This is a genuinely exciting opportunity to join a dynamic startup branch of an established and growing company.

We offer a very competitive basic salary, the level of which would depend on level of experience, supplemented by bonuses/commissions rewarding new business created.
