Start your career in financial services
Have you recently finished university, or are you looking to move into financial services from customer service, retail, hospitality, sales or another customer-facing role?
This is an excellent opportunity to join a leading UK wealth management company and gain valuable experience within a professional financial-services environment.
You do not need a degree or previous financial-services experience. Full training will be provided, and we are looking for people with strong communication skills, a positive attitude and the confidence to speak with customers over the telephone.
The position will initially run until the end of March 2027, but strong performers will have a genuine opportunity to be considered for permanent employment.
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.
The role
As a Trainee Financial Services Executive, you will contact existing clients to discuss important matters relating to their accounts and ensure they receive the appropriate support.
Approximately 80% of the role will involve outbound calls, with the remaining 20% covering inbound enquiries and associated administration. These are conversations with existing clients rather than cold sales calls.
Your Responsibilities Will Include
- Making outbound calls to existing clients
- Handling inbound telephone enquiries
- Listening carefully and explaining information clearly
- Supporting clients with potentially sensitive or detailed queries
- Updating customer records accurately
- Managing follow-up actions and keeping clients informed
- Working with other departments to resolve enquiries
- Learning about investments, pensions and financial services
- Following internal processes and regulatory requirements
Who we are looking for
We would like to hear from you if you
- Are confident speaking with people over the telephone
- Have strong customer service and communication skills
- Can show empathy, patience and professionalism
- Are comfortable working in a busy, target-driven environment
- Have good attention to detail
- Are confident using computers and learning new systems
- Are reliable and able to maintain good attendance
- Want to develop a long-term career in financial services
