Additional Information

If you’ve perhaps had enough of the old school Brittex style commission treadmill that some companies are still on, then let us know is something like this might be what you’ve been waiting for.

Please note: This position would typically suit experienced UK investment advisory candidates as most of the consumers served by my client are typical EU and UK expatriates. A minimum of three (3) years experience working in the wealth management business is a requirement. This position is NOT for someone from the accounting / auditing or financial management profession. This is a client facing, sales and targets driven profession.
