Do you have strong administration and customer service skills? Are you confident speaking with clients over the phone and comfortable juggling multiple tasks and priorities? Are you organised, accurate and empathetic in your approach?
We have the job for you!
Known internally as a Probate Beneficiary Contact Administration Support, this Team Administration Assistant role here with us at Move With Us (part of Simplify), is all about providing first-class administrative and client support.
Working with our existing client base in the Probate division, the Team Administration Assistant plays an important part in ensuring new referrals and client enquiries are handled efficiently, accurately, and professionally. You'll manage incoming referrals, monitor and manage the referral inbox, allocate tasks to the Sales team, and provide wider administrative support to help the team effectively manage its portfolio.
You'll also have direct contact with our clients, responding to enquiries and working with their requirements, so you'll need to be confident communicating both verbally and in writing and able to provide excellent customer service.
You'll be happiest in a busy environment where there is plenty to keep on top of. You'll be organised, able to transition between different tasks and comfortable working to deadlines while maintaining excellent attention to detail.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Experience or knowledge of the UK probate or property sectors would certainly be advantageous but not at all essential, we are most interested in hearing from people with strong transferable administration and customer service skills who are keen to learn and develop.

Requirements
To be successful in this role, you'll need to be a confident communicator with a professional and approachable manner. A significant part of the role involves communicating with colleagues, clients and external partners, particularly over the telephone, so you'll need to be comfortable picking up the phone and dealing with a variety of enquiries.
You'll be organised and conscientious, with good time-management skills and the ability to work accurately to deadlines. There can be several different things requiring your attention at once, so you'll need to be able to prioritise effectively, transition between tasks and remain professional when working under pressure.
As you'll be supporting our Probate division and dealing directly with clients, some of whom may be upset, empathy, and good listening skills are particularly important. You'll understand that different situations can require different approaches and will be able to adapt your communication accordingly.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
You'll also be computer literate, self-motivated and enthusiastic, with a strong customer-service focus.
Teamwork is important to us, and you'll work closely with colleagues across our Probate and Maintenance departments as well as other areas of Simplify. At the same time, you'll be comfortable working independently, taking responsibility for your own workload and knowing when to seek advice or support.
Previous knowledge of the UK probate industry and/or the property sector would be an advantage, but isn't at all essential as the right person will be trained. More important is that you bring strong administration and customer-service skills, attention to detail, compassion, and a genuine willingness to learn.
