The successful candidate will be a great team player, have a good head for figures and enjoy working under pressure. You will need to be able to understand the bigger picture of individual clients’ financial affairs and future needs whilst completing the day to day tasks. You will be expected to multi-task and deal with anyone from a distressed mentally ill person, an angry carer to an unhelpful official and be able to charm the birds from the trees in securing positive outcomes for our clients.
The role requires the ability to work under pressure with ever changing priorities, a flexible and adaptable approach, an excellent level of common sense and life skills, together with excellent client care and IT skills.
