Client Services Associate - Financial Planning

Client Services Associate | Financial Planning

Are you an experienced Client Services professional looking for a role where your expertise will be valued, your contribution recognised, and your career supported?

This opportunity offers the chance to join a highly regarded financial planning practice that has built a strong reputation for delivering personalised, conflict-free advice and exceptional client service. With continued growth across the business, they are seeking an experienced Client Services professional to become a key member of the team.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

Advice Model
Join a business committed to providing conflict-free financial advice. Their focus is on helping clients make informed financial decisions without the influence of product affiliations or sales targets.

Established & Supportive Team
Work alongside a highly experienced team with excellent staff retention and a collaborative culture. The business has built a reputation for supporting its people and creating an environment where team members can enjoy long-term careers.

Flexible Working Arrangements
The business is open to both full-time and part-time (4 dpw) applicants and recognises the importance of flexibility.

Work-Life Balance
Enjoy a professional environment that values balance, with no overtime or weekend work and a culture that respects life outside the office.

About the Role

As Client Services Associate, you'll play a critical role in supporting advisers, coordinating client service activities, and ensuring a consistently high standard of service delivery across the business.

• Assist in driving consistent service standards across the support team.

• A strong understanding of the financial planning process and advice implementation.
• Exceptional attention to detail and organisational skills.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• The ability to manage competing priorities and deadlines effectively.
• Experience using Xplan (highly regarded but not essential)

Why Join This Business?
