Role Responsibilities

The incoming Financial Planner starts with an established client bank. You will inherit up to around 100 clients with long-standing relationships already in place, and grow your own book from leads the firm generates for you through its accountant and solicitor connections, its business development manager and referrals from existing clients. Those professional connections regularly bring corporate and employee benefits work as well as private clients, so this Financial Planner job offers real variety, with paraplanning and administration in-house so your time goes on clients.

• Level 4 Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning with competent adviser status
• Experience advising clients on pensions, investments and retirement planning

About the Company

The employer is a founder-led, independent financial planning firm in St Helens, Merseyside, that advises whole of market across pensions, investments, retirement planning, inheritance tax, mortgages, protection and corporate benefits.

Alongside the advisers sit in-house paraplanners, administrators and a business development manager.

A recent adviser who I placed there told me it was the right move without question. He has plenty of clients, and he now has the paraplanning and administration support behind him that his previous firm never gave him.

Role Responsibilities

The IFA Report Writer turns the adviser's recommendation into the suitability report the client reads and the regulator expects. The advisers do the meeting and make the recommendation, and you take it from their notes, the fact find and the risk profile to a clear, compliant report. It is the writing side of paraplanning, so this suits someone who already understands pensions and investments and would rather spend the day writing well than researching providers.

Key responsibilities include:

• Drafting suitability reports from the adviser's notes, fact find and risk profile
• Producing annual review reports and ongoing client letters
• Checking each report matches the recommendation and the supporting evidence
• Raising gaps or queries with the adviser before a report goes out
• Preparing the illustrations, key features and fee paperwork that go with each report
• Working alongside the paraplanner and advisers on how cases are written up
• Keeping client and case records accurate on the back office system

Person Specification

The successful IFA Report Writer will ideally have written suitability reports in an IFA or financial planning firm already, and report writers, technical administrators and trainee paraplanners are equally welcome. What matters most is a working knowledge of the advice process and the products a report covers, so the adviser's notes make sense to you without a translation.

You should also be able to demonstrate the following:

• Report writing or technical administration experience within an IFA or financial planning firm
• Sound knowledge of pensions, ISAs, general investment accounts and bonds
• Organisation to keep several reports moving to deadline at once
• The confidence to question an adviser's notes when something does not add up
• Working knowledge of Intelliflo Office, or another back office system
• Accuracy and attention to detail in regulated documents
• Clear, plain written English that a client can follow
• Interest in CII study, with papers passed or under way a bonus

Benefits and Rewards

This IFA Report Writer job pays £32,000 to £35,000 depending on experience. It is full-time and permanent, Monday to Friday, office-based in St Helens, Merseyside, and comes with:

• Salary of £32,000 to £35,000, the top of the range for strong Intelliflo experience
• 5% employer pension through a salary sacrifice scheme
• Profit-share bonus of 5% of salary
• 26 days' holiday plus bank holidays, rising to 30 with service
• Option to buy or sell holiday, plus a day off for your birthday
• Life cover at 3x salary after one year's service
• Private medical insurance after a qualifying period
• Enhanced company sick pay once probation is passed, rising with service
• CII and Diploma study support
• A route into paraplanning and, if wanted, on into advice
• Flexible start between 8 and 10 and finish between 4 and 6
• Free parking

About the Company

The employer is a founder-led, independent financial planning firm in St Helens, Merseyside, that advises whole of market across pensions, investments, inheritance tax, mortgages and protection. It has grown over two decades largely on referral, the founder still holds client advice relationships, and the team of 18 is planned to reach around 30 over the next three years. Paraplanning and administration are both in-house, so this job joins a team already built around supporting the advisers.

The firm has confirmed a route from this job into paraplanning and on into advice. A recent administrator who I placed there is halfway through her Level 4 Diploma and already doing paraplanning work, and one of the firm's current advisers joined as an administrator, moved into paraplanning and now advises clients, qualifications supported along the way.

Role Responsibilities

The job of Financial Adviser here starts with an existing client bank rather than a blank diary. The first priority is getting to know those clients, keeping them and looking after them properly, with more office time while you settle in. Work runs from ISAs, GIAs, bonds and pensions through to trusts, specialist pensions and more complex inheritance tax planning, with lifetime cashflow modelling at the heart of each plan. New business comes in too, mostly through long-standing solicitor relationships, and the firm builds it as a team rather than leaving each adviser to find it alone.

Key responsibilities include:

• Taking ownership of an established bank of private clients
• Running annual reviews and keeping long-standing clients engaged
• Advising on retirement, tax, investment and estate planning
• Building trust quickly with clients who are new to you
• Winning new clients alongside the wider adviser team
• Briefing the shared paraplanning and administration team on each case

Person Specification

The successful Financial Adviser will ideally be a qualified, practising adviser who is comfortable with complex clients and wants to be judged on how well they are looked after. Chartered status is welcome but not essential, and advisers working towards it are encouraged to apply. Advisers currently titled Financial Planner, IFA or Wealth Manager are equally welcome. Advisers from restricted firms are welcome too, where they want to advise without sales targets.

You should also be able to demonstrate the following:

• Level 4 Diploma and a current Statement of Professional Standing
• Experience looking after an established private client bank
• Technical confidence with pensions, investments, trusts and IHT
• Organised management of a full review and advice diary
• Initiative in growing relationships and winning referrals
• Comfort with cashflow modelling and back office systems
• Sound judgement on complex and vulnerable client cases
• Clear, confident communication with clients and introducers
• A client-first approach built on long-term relationships

Benefits and Rewards

This Financial Adviser job pays £60,000 to £80,000 and is full-time and permanent, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, with hybrid working, no fixed office days and a team day every other Monday. Alongside the salary, the employer offers:

• Salary of £60,000 to £80,000
• Full-time, permanent, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm
• Hybrid and remote working, no fixed office days, team day every other Monday
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
• Pension matched up to 5%
• Life assurance at four times salary after probation
• Group income protection
• Mobile phone paid for
• Study support
• Shared support from five paraplanners and five administrators

About the Company

The employer is a long-established, chartered and independent financial planning firm in Manchester, Greater Manchester, advising private clients across the North West and beyond. Alongside retirement, tax, investment and estate planning, the practice also does specialist planning for clients with injury awards and for divorce, much of it referred by solicitors. A large paraplanning and administration team supports the advisers as one shared resource, so no paraplanner or administrator is tied to one adviser and every Financial Adviser has the same backing. Staff tend to stay for years, so advisers work with the same support team over time, and one paraplanner has recently stepped up into advice.

Role Responsibilities and Duties

This Paraplanner job is for someone who wants to stay technical and keep getting better at it. The firm runs a one to one ratio of paraplanners to advisers, so the incoming Paraplanner works directly with the adviser on each case rather than at the end of a queue. Clients are high net worth individuals, families and business owners with an average of over £1m invested, so the cases are rarely straightforward and the research behind them matters.

Key responsibilities include:

• Owning complex suitability reports across pensions, investments and estate planning

• Building bespoke portfolios through the firm's investment sifting process and fund panel

• Leading the technical research and analysis behind each adviser's recommendations

• Cashflow modelling and planning projections in Intelliflo Planning and Voyant

• Pension transfers, retirement income, trusts and inheritance tax planning cases

• Intergenerational wealth planning and tax-efficient investment solutions

• Product, platform and investment research to keep recommendations suitable

• Liaising with providers, investment managers and compliance to put advice in place

• Working across Aegon, Aviva, Quilter, Royal London and Fidelity

Person Specification

The successful Paraplanner will ideally be someone who has chosen paraplanning as a career rather than as a route into advice. Technical confidence matters more than years served, and the advisers want someone they can trust with their most complex cases early on. Experience at an independent or whole of market practice will translate directly, whether the current title is paraplanner, technical paraplanner or senior paraplanner.

You should also be able to demonstrate the following:

• Paraplanning experience across pensions, investments and inheritance tax planning

• Level 4 Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning, or good progress towards it

• Confidence writing suitability reports that go out without rewrites

• Experience of pension transfers, trusts and retirement income cases

• An organised approach to a varied caseload of complex cases

• Working knowledge of a cashflow modelling tool such as Voyant

• A strong focus on technical accuracy and good client outcomes

• Clear written communication, since the reports are the output

Salary and Benefits

This Paraplanner job pays £43,000 to £48,000, full-time and permanent, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, with hybrid working of up to four days a week from home if wanted. Alongside the salary, the employer offers:

• Salary of £43,000 to £48,000

• Full-time, permanent, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm

• Hybrid and remote working, up to four days a week from home

• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays

• A day off for your birthday each year

• 5% employer pension contribution

• Death in service at three times salary

• Full study support, including exam fees and study time

• A one to one paraplanner to adviser ratio

About the Company

The employer is a whole of market financial planning firm in Altrincham, Cheshire, advising high net worth individuals, families and business owners, with an average of £1m invested per client and some relationships going back thirty years. It is a very modern, relaxed firm with no rigid or outdated procedures, run by three working directors who intend to stay for the long term, with no sale or exit planned. Growth follows a set order, with support staff in place before new advisers join, so nobody arrives at a firm that cannot resource them properly. People progress here too, and this job is open because one of the paraplanners is moving into advice with the owners' backing.

• Confident use of research tools and back office systems

The employer is an independent, directly authorised financial planning firm, advising whole of market from its Wirral base and serving clients across Merseyside, Cheshire and the wider North West. Its clients are largely high net worth individuals, families and business owners typically holding around £500,000 of investable assets, so the casework runs well beyond the routine. The firm was founded by an experienced practice owner who built and sold a previous advice business before starting this one independently, and the business is run with that in mind. The adviser team is supported by two paraplanners, a compliance manager and a client services function, so the incoming Paraplanner joins an established support structure rather than carrying the technical work alone. There is a stated route for people who want to go further, coaching them through the technical work and funding the qualifications, whether that means going deeper into paraplanning or towards advice in time.

As an equal opportunities employer we welcome applications from candidates of all backgrounds and circumstances. Our privacy policy can be found at the bottom of our website.

Role Responsibilities

The IFA Administrator keeps the advice process moving for the adviser team and works closely with the paraplanners. Clients typically hold an average of around £500,000 of investable assets, and the advice covers pensions and retirement, investments, inheritance tax and business planning, so the casework is complex from the first week. As experience and qualifications build, the job takes on research and case preparation with the paraplanning team, which is the development route the firm would like the successful person to follow.

Key responsibilities include:

• Supporting the advisers across the full advice process, from first meeting to implementation
• Submitting and tracking new business with providers through to completion
• Acting as first point of contact for providers and clients on queries and outstanding items
• Taking on research and case preparation alongside the paraplanning team as experience builds
• Preparing valuations and paperwork ahead of client review meetings
• Chasing outstanding requirements so cases keep moving
• Keeping client records accurate and files audit ready on the back office system

Person Specification

The successful IFA Administrator will already be working in administration within a financial advice firm, whether the current title is IFA administrator, financial planning administrator or client services administrator. The advice process, provider paperwork and back office systems should be familiar ground. The firm would ideally like to develop this person into paraplanning, coaching them through the technical work and funding the qualifications, though that ambition is not a requirement.

You should also be able to demonstrate the following:

• Administration experience within a financial advice or financial planning firm
• Working knowledge of pensions, investments and the new business process
• Ability to manage a busy workload and prioritise as work comes in
• Initiative in chasing outstanding items without being prompted
• Confident use of back office systems and provider portals
• Accuracy and attention to detail on client records and paperwork
• Clear, professional communication with clients, providers and advisers
• Discretion when handling confidential client information
• An interest in developing into paraplanning, though this is not essential

Benefits and Rewards

This IFA Administrator job pays £28,000 to £32,000 on a permanent, full-time basis, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, working from the office on the Wirral. Alongside the salary, the employer offers:

• Salary of £28,000 to £32,000 depending on experience
• Office based, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, with flexibility
• Contributory matched pension scheme with a 5% employer contribution
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
• Death in service
• Income protection
• Funded professional qualifications and study support towards paraplanning

About the Company

The employer is an independent, directly authorised financial planning firm, advising whole of market from its Wirral base for clients across Merseyside, Cheshire and the wider North West. It was founded by an experienced practice owner who built and sold a previous advice business before starting again independently, and the standards set here reflect that experience. Most clients are high net worth individuals, families and business owners, and inheritance tax and intergenerational planning are a growing share of the work. The team of thirteen includes four advisers, two paraplanners, a compliance manager and client services, which gives a new administrator experienced people to learn from at every stage. There is a stated route for anyone who wants to move into the technical side, coaching them through paraplanning casework first and funding the qualifications along the way.

• CII study support towards Chartered

• Flexible start and finish times
• 1-2 days a week working from home

About the Firm

The employer is an independent, whole-of-market financial planning firm that has been advising clients across Cheshire and the North West for many years, and it remains owned by the people who founded it rather than a network or a consolidator. Advice runs on a team model rather than a single named adviser, so the work is shared and the technical standard is held collectively. Several of its advisers were named Top Rated in the 2025 VouchedFor guide and the firm holds the Pension Transfer Gold Standard, which tells you something about the depth of the casework. It is a firm that has grown steadily rather than by acquisition, invests in its people, and has an excellent reputation locally.

• Proven experience delivering regulated holistic financial advice
• Strong technical knowledge across pensions, investments, protection and tax

• Taking full responsibility for client files and back-office records throughout the advice process

• Level 4 Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning, or working towards it

The operational side is run by a supportive practice manager, which keeps the practice steady and well organised.

Role Responsibilities

This Senior IFA Administrator job sits at the centre of a small team looking after high net worth individuals, families, business owners and medical professionals, where the average client household holds well over £1m. The firm deliberately keeps its client numbers low so each family gets more support, which means the cases are complex and the paperwork has to be right first time. The incoming Senior IFA Administrator joins a firm that is adding to its team, which leaves room to progress for anyone who wants it.

Key responsibilities include:

• Owning the administration on complex high net worth cases from start to finish
• Acting as the main contact for clients, providers and advisers on live cases
• Improving the team's processes as the firm adds advisers
• Training and supporting newer administrators through their first months
• Preparing valuations and review packs ahead of client meetings
• Processing new business, transfers and withdrawals with providers
• Keeping client records accurate and files compliant and audit ready

Person Specification

The successful Senior IFA Administrator will ideally be someone who has chosen administration as a profession rather than as a stepping stone into paraplanning or advice. Experience in a financial advice firm working with high net worth clients will translate directly, whether the current title is senior financial planning administrator, client services administrator or wealth administrator. The firm wants someone the advisers and the rest of the team can rely on from the first month.

You should also be able to demonstrate the following:

• Several years' administration experience in a financial advice or financial planning firm
• Experience with high net worth clients and complex, multi-provider cases
• CII qualifications such as the Certificate in Financial Planning, welcome but not essential
• Strong organisation across a varied caseload for more than one adviser
• The initiative to spot problems early and resolve them without prompting
• Accuracy and close attention to detail on client paperwork
• Clear, professional communication with clients, providers and advisers
• Discretion with the confidential affairs of wealthy clients
• A long-term outlook and the wish to build a career with one firm

Benefits and Rewards

This Senior IFA Administrator job pays £34,000 to £38,000, full-time and permanent, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, with hybrid working of up to four days a week from home if desired. Alongside the salary, the employer offers:

• Salary of £34,000 to £38,000
• Full-time, permanent, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm
• Hybrid and remote working, up to four days a week from home
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
• A day off for your birthday each year
• 5% employer pension contribution
• Death in service at three times salary
• Funded exam support
• Room to progress as the firm grows

About the Company

The employer is a financial planning firm in Altrincham, Cheshire, advising high net worth individuals, families, business owners and medical professionals on a whole of market basis. It is a deliberately small practice of eight people, and some of its client relationships go back thirty years. It is owned by three working directors, two of whom advise clients day to day, and they intend to stay for the long term, with no sale or exit planned.

Growth here follows a set order: support staff come first, then roughly one new adviser a year, so nobody joins a team that is stretched by advisers it cannot service. People progress too, and one of the firm's paraplanners is moving into advice with the owners' backing.

As an equal opportunities employer we welcome applications from candidates of all backgrounds and circumstances. Our privacy policy can be found at the bottom of our website.

Role Responsibilities

The IFA Administrator looks after a group of advisers and their clients, and is the person the advisers rely on to get cases done properly and on time. It is a step up from a standard client services administrator job, with more of the technical work and a hand in bringing on newer colleagues. For an administrator who wants to stay in client servicing it is a senior seat, and for one who wants to go further the route is there.

Key responsibilities include:

• Running new business on the platforms from application to completion
• Processing switches, withdrawals and changes to regular payments
• Putting together review packs and valuations ahead of client meetings
• Handling portfolio rebalances and the checks that follow
• Owning client calls and seeing queries through to an answer
• Helping newer administrators get up to speed
• Supporting the advisers' corporate clients with their workplace schemes
• Gathering policy details and quotes from providers
• Preparing client paperwork and fee agreements
• Carrying out the compliance checks each new client needs
• Keeping the back-office system and client records accurate

Person Specification

This IFA Administrator job suits someone who already works in a financial planning firm and is comfortable with pensions, investments and protection. The firm would ideally like someone who can pick up a client bank and run it without being taught the products. Experience will decide where an offer sits within the salary band.

You should also be able to demonstrate the following:

• Administration experience in an IFA or wealth management firm
• A working knowledge of pensions, investments and protection
• Hands-on experience of the main investment platforms
• A well-organised approach to a busy, varied workload
• Willingness to take a query and see it through
• Confidence with Microsoft Office
• Accuracy and a careful eye for detail
• Clear communication with clients, advisers and providers
• Reliability and a team-first attitude

Diploma study is welcome but not required.

Salary and Benefits

The IFA Administrator job is full-time and permanent, Monday to Friday, with hybrid working and a package that supports your exams and your progression. In addition, you will receive:

• Salary of £28,500 to £32,000, depending on experience
• Full-time, permanent, Monday to Friday
• Flexible hours, starting between 8am and 10am and finishing between 4pm and 6pm
• Hybrid working with one day remote working from home per week
• Funded exams, including the Diploma
• 6.5% employer pension
• 28 days holiday plus bank holidays
• Death in service
• A route into technical work, including paraplanning

About the Company

The employer is an independent, whole of market financial planning firm in Manchester, Greater Manchester, advising private clients and businesses across the North West. It promotes from within on performance and knowledge, which is why this job is open: the current IFA Administrator is moving up into paraplanning. The firm runs on intelligent Office with up-to-date processes, so a new starter learns current systems from day one. It looks after clients over the long term rather than case by case, and the client services team works closely together, with colleagues stepping in for one another when the workload calls for it.
