A Fresh Career Move in Financial Services Compliance
Are you ready to take the next step in your financial services career? Whether you're already working in Compliance or looking to move across from Paraplanning or Advice, this is a rare opportunity to join a respected, long-established Independent Financial Planning firm with an exceptional reputation for quality and client care.
Based in Holmes Chapel, this growing business supports a specialist client base and has built its success on genuine expertise, integrity, and long-term relationships. Following an internal promotion and a planned retirement, they are now looking for a Compliance Assistant to work closely with their experienced Compliance Officer.
If you're looking for a role where you can learn, develop, and make a real impact within a supportive, collaborative environment, this could be the perfect fit.
What You'll Be Doing
You'll play a key role in safeguarding the firm's high compliance standards, ensuring all advice and documentation meet FCA requirements and supporting the team in delivering outstanding client outcomes.
Who We're Looking For
You may already be working in an IFA compliance function, or you might be a paraplanner or adviser looking to transition into a dedicated compliance role. Either way, you'll bring:
- Exceptional attention to detail
- Clear, confident written and verbal communication
- Strong organisation and time management
- A solid grounding in financial services and FCA frameworks
- A proactive, team-focused attitude
Qualifications:
- Ideally Level 3 Certificate in Financial Services (or working towards), but experience and attitude are just as important.
What's in It for You?
- Salary up to £40,000, depending on experience
- Hybrid working once training and probation are complete
- A genuinely supportive team and collaborative culture
- Long-term development and progression within Compliance
- The stability of joining a respected, established financial planning firm
