This is a great opportunity for someone with sales experience within financial services to enjoy working for one of the most expansive and progressive companies in financial services at the moment. Our client will grow from 300 to 400 staff by the end of 2011 and therefore it follows that those who perform well, progress quicker than with most other employers in the sector.
The Company: Our client is a specialist provider of annuity and equity release products and this 'at retirement' market is enjoying huge growth at present and this will continue for a number of years due to the nature of the pensions market in the UK and the fact that huge numbers of people retire without adequate pensions provision. This company now turns over in excess of £1billion per year.
The Role: This essential role requires a skilled customer service/sales professional to be able to follow up on business quotes and enquiries and convert them into new business.
Dealing with a pre-defined panel of IFA's you will have the self motivation and confidence to sell the services of the business and ensure that quotations are turned into sales through outbound calls. You would need to keep up to date with our clients product range as well as those of competitors as well as legislative and business developments within the industry.
You will provide a point of contact for this panel of IFA's and build strong, productive working relationships and it is very much worth bearing in mind that our client is widely recognised as a leader in this field, having won numerous customer service awards and therefore they are viewed favourably by the wider IFA community.
This role is perfect for someone who has worked in the pensions industry, possibly personal banking, mortgage advising and various other advisory, consulting and sales based roles within financial services.
Skills / Experience Required: You must, as mentioned above, have previous sales experience within Financial Services. Progress with professional qualifications such as the CF exams will be viewed favourably, as will strong communication and negotiation skills. You should have a desire to succeed and enjoy working as part of a strong team based environment.
Additional Information: The salary for this role is set initially at £23,000 and the bonus structure would realistically bring in up to £6,000 and the top end of this is very achievable. In addition you will receive an excellent range of benefits. As mentioned at the outset, you will also be working for a company that offers excellent progression and a lovely work environment.
The Quotations Conversion Manager position is only one of many vacancies we are handling. ARC is a specialist within Financial Services recruitment and the Consultant handling this role has over 15 years experience in this field. Areas of expertise include employee benefits/group risk, compliance, pensions, flexible benefits, paraplanners, sales support, underwriters and IT related roles.

If you have call / contact centre experience within financial services, the leap across to this product provider could set you on a path to a long, progressive and successful career. They have been expanding through the recession and this will continue throughout 2012.
The Company: Having grown to close to 700, our client is recognised as one of the most progressive companies in financial services and have won numerous awards for their level's of customer service. This comes through high level training and this is something you will be exposed to early on.

You will work with and support registered IFA's to secure profitable new business, providing informative and accurate product information and liaising with all internal departments across the Operational teams.
Although offically this is deemed a contact centre role, in our opinion, it is not a harsh environment like some.

Skills / Experience Required: The ideal individual must have experience working in the Financial Services industry, preferably in a sales, or customer service environment. If you have had experience in pensions or mortgages, this would prove an advantage.
Additional Information: The basic salary is up to £21,400. Our client offers a superb benefits package that is worth c. £2,000 if you take up the full pension entitlement and a bonus that could add a further £1,600 to your basic.
If you thrive in a busy environment and take an analytical approach to problem solving then this could be the role for you.

Our client has expanded from 300 to 700 staff in last 2-3 years, with further expansion plans pushing towards 1,000 staff by 2014. They are also looking to strengthen links with current partners and forge links with other potential partner businesses which is why the Affinity Team has also grown. This role will aid the affinity marketing operation.
The Company: Our client focuses on two areas of financial services. In one product line they are the leading provider in the UK and in the other they are ranked no.2. With increased affinity partners using and trusting their products, coupled with new products in the pipeline, the forecast for the future is looking exceptionally bright.
The Role: The purpose of this role is to execute a mix of affinity partner marketing communications that contribute towards the achievement of the business plan. You will develop, implement and measure marketing communications activity as well as interrogate and develop results from marketing, sales and affinity partners. The main responsibilities include:
* Utilise information from internal and external data sources to develop informed campaigns in conjunction with all relevant stakeholders.
* Work with the Direct Marketing Manager to identify, plan and execute campaigns, lead generation initiatives and support operational improvements from a marketing viewpoint.
* Execute offline and online B2C campaigns and initiatives (via affinity partner brands) in line with the business plan and within targeted costs. Measure and evaluate campaign effectiveness against pre-set performance objectives and act on any feedback or lessons learnt.
* Liaise with internal/external stakeholders and marketing agencies to produce online and offline campaigns and marketing communications, from brief, through creative concept and copy origination, sign-off processes, to print and/or digital execution.
* Interpret and analyse customer, IFA and brand research, identifying opportunities for further campaigns, product developments, operational improvements etc.
* Contribute to the scoping and refining of the customer experience, particularly assisting in work to ensure that lead to conversion ratios are maximised.
Skills / Experience Required: Our client is looking for a good marketer with lots of direct marketing/campaign/customer relationship management experience. Financial Services experience is preferred, but is not essential, as is previous affinity related experience. You should have a degree or marketing qualification, solid B2B or B2C experience and be motivated to progress. Initially the role is offered on a 6 month contract basis with a very strong possibility of turning permanent.
Additional Information: The permanent salary for this role is £30,000 to £35,000 with the initial contract paying £125 to £150 per day. Should the role go permanent, you would then receive an annual bonus of c.10%, as well as pension and other life and health benefits.
