The role of a Client Manager is our spin on the traditional Paraplanner position. Ultimately, it’s about helping others to enjoy life to the fullest. We provide clients with the financial confidence to make the most of life without niggling concerns about money.

You will be the primary contact for your bank of clients, proactively managing and building your relationships. You will also provide support and planning for key areas of the financial planning process including tax planning, estate planning, asset allocation and ongoing portfolio reviews.

If that sounds daunting – don’t be scared! We’ll take your experience into account and will provide you with all the support you need as you learn about your new role.
