Working Pattern: Hybrid
Right to Work: Full right to work in the UK required - no sponsorship available
An established global financial services organisation is seeking an experienced Client Services Manager to join the Transfer Agency Operations team in Manchester.
This is a senior, client facing opportunity for someone from a Transfer Agency, Wealth Management, Asset Management, Investment Operations, Fund Administration or Client Services background. The ideal candidate will have experience working with fund managers or institutional clients, rather than solely retail clients, alongside a strong understanding of dealing, settlements, servicing and trade related activity.
The Role
You will act as a senior point of contact for key clients, managing day-to-day relationships, service delivery and escalations across the Transfer Agency function. You'll work closely with operational teams and senior stakeholders to deliver a high-quality service while identifying opportunities to improve processes and client experience.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
