Pension and Investment Administrator

Location: Maxim Park @ Euro Central

Start Date: 14th July

Starting salary between £25,400 - £28,500 (depending on hours, location, skills and experience). Our standard full-time contracts are for 35 hours per week (with options for part time working); we also offer a 40-hour contract which has an enhanced salary of up to £32,571.

This role will offer hybrid working between our Maxim Park office at Euro Central and working from home. Please note this is not a fully remote role - a minimum requirement of 2 days working in the office per week.

Aviva introduced "smart-working" in 2020 and encourage flexible working; however, the successful post-holder will ideally need to be based within an hour's commutable distance from our Maxim Park office, as training and your role will be a mix of office-based work and home working (this will be agreed with your manager dependent on the role).

Are you someone who has excellent organisational, administration and customer service skills, who also has (or has an interest in gaining), an understanding of Pension, ISA and Investment Portfolio products? This role will give you the opportunity to gain an understanding of the complex nature of our products, plus you will gain insight into the regulatory aspects of our Savings and Retirement business (i.e., exposure to working towards HMRC and Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) rules).

You will ensure you exceed required service levels within a controlled environment, whilst always adhering to regulatory and client requirements!

Skills and experience we're looking for:

• Ability to work at a fast pace and with high volumes whilst maintaining accuracy and attention to detail.
• Excellent communication skills (both written and verbal) and relationship building with customers and colleagues.
• Ability to follow processes and procedures, to manage your own workload effectively and identify opportunities for improvement.
• Good working knowledge of Microsoft applications, particularly Excel and OneNote.
• Previous experience in an administrative and/or customer service/financial services role.
