About the Role

An excellent opportunity has arisen for a Fully Qualified Financial Adviser to join a well-established and highly respected financial services business in Horsham.

Due to the size of the existing client base and ongoing demand, they are now looking for an experienced Adviser who can hit the ground running and provide a high level of service to existing clients.

The role will involve a combination of client servicing and fee-earning activity, with servicing being the predominant requirement. The ability and desire to generate and write new business would also be highly desirable, with new leads provided alongside an established client bank.

• Potential future opportunity to buy into the business, where appropriate and desirable.

Key Responsibilities

The successful Adviser will be expected to confidently advise clients across:

• Protection
• Investments
• Pensions

You will be responsible for managing and developing existing client relationships, conducting client reviews and providing appropriate financial planning advice.

Contract & Package

There is flexibility around the structure of the role, with both employed and self-employed options available, depending on the candidate's experience, preferences and discussions.

Employed option: £40,000 – £65,000 depending on experience.

For the right individual, there is also the potential for a future opportunity to buy into the business.

Why Join?

This is an opportunity to join a well-established local financial services business with a significant existing client base, strong client retention and an experienced support team.
