Lifestyle Paraplanner / Technical Administrator
North London | Hybrid Working

An established, independent financial planning firm in North London are looking to appoint an experienced Lifestyle Paraplanner / Technical Administrator as part of its continued growth.

This is a career paraplanner opportunity within a modern, dynamic business that combines professional standards with a relaxed, collaborative culture.

The business

Circa 140 client households
Around 25 new clients onboarded each year

High-touch financial planning model
Quality of advice and client outcomes sit at the centre of everything.

The opportunity

Working closely with the advice team, you will support two Chartered Financial Planners, one of whom is the Managing Director and a newly qualified Financial Planner / Relationship Manager.

You will take ownership across paraplanning and technical delivery while also supporting some general administration within a small, team-focused environment.

You will be involved in the full advice process, attending meetings, supporting client delivery, and helping maintain high standards across the business.

As the firm grows, there will be an opportunity to help build out the paraplanning function, taking increasing responsibility and influence over time.

You will also be supported by an external retained paraplanner who will assist with your transition, helping you learn internal procedures and processes. This individual is not being replaced and will remain engaged by the practice to provide ongoing technical support and guidance.

Culture and mindset

Ownership is expected
Team contribution matters
Ideas are welcomed
Technology and innovation are embraced
Everyone plays a role in improving delivery
Attitude is reflected in how people work, support colleagues, and approach clients.

Candidate profile

Level 4 qualified
Minimum two years’ paraplanning or technical experience
Comfortable producing suitability reports
Strong grounding across core planning areas
System experience preferred including IO, Saturn, Voyant, Microsoft, and Transact
Most importantly, candidates must want to be part of a team, not just perform a function.

Package and working pattern

Salary £40,000 – £60,000 + Bonus and benefits
5% + 5% matching pension
Generous holiday allowance
Two-week Christmas shutdown (in addition to annual leave)
Birthday leave
