Level: 4
Department: Quilter Financial Advisers
Location: South of England (From Southampton up to Bristol)
Contract type: Permanent, Full time, 35 hours per week
The Business Establishment Manager (BEM) holds a key function for the new self-employed Adviser to QFA. In their first year with the National business the Business Establishment Manager will act as their line manager, business coach, and role model to prepare them for integration into the regional team structure. Getting advisers productive in that period is key to an adviser being able to thrive with Quilter by building a strong business.
They will carry out many of the functions that the current Regional Directors have, but on a much more intensive basis, with a smaller span of control allowing for more time to be spent with the individual. The role holder responsibilities will include, leading by example, demonstrating, then coaching an adviser through all the key elements to creating the foundations needed. The Business Establishment Manager will meet regularly with their advisers, give them hands on support including demonstrating, observing client meetings and coaching the valuable skills successful advisers needs to have.
To that end it is a field-based role. While we make use of the technology when it is appropriate, it will be time spent in the field with the adviser that will have the most impact, so there will be travel involved, and on occasion this will include overnights due to geography.

As a mentor and coach, you'll play an important role in guiding our team of advisors to success, leveraging your leadership skills to inspire and empower them, helping them reach their full potential.
You're results-oriented and always striving for improvement, with the confidence to lead and manage change effectively.
