Client Executive – Insurance Solutions
Overview:
We have an opening within our Insurance Solutions team who provide investment advice and portfolio construction for primarily Insurance clients, but also cater to other Financial Services firms as well.
The position will involve working closely with one of our Client Directors on their global client book, managing day-to-day administration including portfolio administration, reporting, and potentially getting involved in the booking of trades.
We are looking for someone with a strong background in administrative duties within the Investment Management arena who, as well as doing the “day-job,” can also look at ways of improving our processes and efficiency within the team as a whole.
Operating a hybrid working policy of 3 days a week in the office, this will be a 9-5 job ideally suited to someone with experience in Investment Management who is highly organized and enjoys getting things done.
While this team will steadily grow over the next few years, we do not envisage this role developing into a client relationship role and as such are open to people who are looking to return to work as well as anyone seeking a change.
About the Company:
W1M was formed in 2024 through the merger of London & Capital and Waverton, two established wealth managers with over 40 years of history. Since then, the business has grown to over 400 employees and manages approximately £27+ billion in assets under management.
We are a UK wealth management firm operating in a regulated environment, providing investment and wealth management services to private clients, families, charities, and institutions.
Our values underpin how we work together and with our clients, shaping a culture focused on high standards, collaboration, integrity, and adaptability.
We have a collaborative working environment where people are given the opportunity to contribute meaningfully to the development of the business.
Key Accountabilities:
PORTFOLIO ADMINISTRATION
- Responsible for the management of portfolio administration requests – i.e. transfer of funds, setting up new portfolios, wire details distribution, static data changes on systems, etc.
- Liaising with Client Lifecycle Team, Operations Oversight Team, and external Custodians regarding new account set-up, asset transfers, additions for new clients, and the ongoing maintenance and management of accounts.
- Responsible for ensuring all applicable due diligence is requested/received while keeping the take-on process as simple as possible for the client, and ensuring forms are completed accurately.
- Work with the Portfolio Management team to ensure the account(s) are correctly set up in all our systems so new funds can be invested.
