Paying up to £29,000 (based on 40 hours per week) starting salary £26,500

Our Customer Service Advisors receive between 30-40 phone calls a day. They handle queries, having been trained to explain complex information in a way our customers will understand. At times, our advisors may deal with complaints, liaise with different areas within our business and investigate certain calls. No matter what our advisors are dealing with, they always ensure they honour given time scales to our customers and fulfil our promises for call backs, updates or emails.

As our customers’ needs evolve, our advisors are trained in how to show empathy in emotional or challenging situations, and to have resilience when dealing with difficult conversations.

Our colleagues play a vital role in our business, so we do what we can to acknowledge their hard work by holding regular recognition and social events, that provide awards, prizes and contribute to peer reviews.

I’m looking for client-focused individuals with a passion for customer service to join our fast paced, dynamic environment to help us provide our customers with the support they need when they call us about Quilter pension and investment products.

Working in our Customer Service Centre, successful candidates will build relationships and rapport, showing empathy and resilience when dealing with client queries; often needing to liaise with departments across our business to manage the varied and sometimes complex phone calls we receive.

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.
