Description:

We are seeking a talented individual to join our Fiduciary team at Marsh. This role will be based in Norwich. This is a hybrid role that has a requirement of working at least three days a week in the office.

What can you expect:

Are you good with figures? Do you have a passion for delivering outstanding results? If so, we’d like to hear from you!

  • Based within our busy Fiduciary Accounting department, this is a varied and stimulating insurance accounting-based role, where you will be responsible for the transition of funds between clients and insurers.

  • You will also be required to build and develop strong working relationships with key internal and external stakeholders, be comfortable working with MS Excel and adept at managing a varied and demanding workload.

  • Whilst we would welcome candidates with relevant experience, we are also keen to hear from college leavers, graduates and individuals with transferrable skills, who are able to demonstrate a genuine interest in building a career within the Financial Services Sector.

  • To succeed you will be highly numerate, have great communication skills and enjoy using these strengths to resolve queries.

We will rely on you to:

  • Be responsible for account reconciliation and ledger management.

  • Raise and send payment requests.

  • Investigate and resolve any unmatched cash issues/financial exposures.

  • Credit control activities.

  • Work out different tax/commission rates.

  • Act upon payment conditions and deadlines as appropriate.

  • Produce and deliver information and documentation in line with requirements.

  • Develop strong working relationships with internal and external stakeholders.

What you need to have: 

  • Good level of education with clear strengths in numerical and potentially accounting related subjects.

  • Exceptional numeracy skills, with demonstrable experience of working with figures.

  • An inquisitive mind set with excellent problem-solving skills.

  • Strong organisational skills with the ability to deal with differing demands.

  • A passion for delivering excellent service to external and internal clients.

  • Great communication skills and the ability to build relationships with colleagues, clients and other stakeholders.

  • High level of accuracy with impeccable attention to detail.

  • Good working knowledge of MS Excel.

What makes you stand out:

  • Previous accounting/credit control experience within a similar (ideally insurance related) role.

  • Proven track record in handling and resolving complex customer queries in a financial environment.

  • Experience with dealing with multi-currencies (specifically dollars) would be advantageous, although not essential.

Why join our team:

  • We help you be your best through professional development opportunities, interesting work and supportive leaders.

  • We foster a vibrant and inclusive culture where you can work with talented colleagues to create new solutions and have impact for colleagues, clients and communities.

  • Our scale enables us to provide a range of career opportunities, as well as benefits and rewards to enhance your well-being.
