Careers
The Chester Partnership's continued growth creates opportunities for financial advisers, para-planners and administration support staff. We welcome enquiries at all times, and every application is responded to with absolute discretion.
Our management team possesses many years of hands-on experience in general personnel matters, and financial services in particular. Whilst we are now one of the U.K.'s largest IFA firms, the company has maintained its approach of nurturing, family-based values: Truth, trust, care, hard work, and reward & recognition being just a few of these.
Applications for positions, when vacancies exist, will be judged on relative experience and education. Applicants' information will be retained until such positions are available for up to a maximum of 6 months.
Please send your C.V. to Steve Riddiough by post, or e-mail - steve@localifas.co.uk.
Financial Advisers
We are committed to providing independent financial advice, and exist to support advisers who share our vision of doing this with integrity and knowledge.
Whether a Designated Investment adviser or specialist mortgage adviser, we offer the choice of either an employed, or self-employed position. Our approach is to remunerate advisers with a bonus scheme, or commission share that increases with productivity - thereby sharing the profitable growth of our advisers.
In recent years, we have appointed advisers with varying requirements for support and development. These have included:
- Developing a Succession Management programme for IFAs approaching retirement.
- Providing employed advisers with a more flexible environment to develop a self-employed business model.
- Providing advisers with a reliable and robust compliance structure that they can rely on with absolute confidence.
- Supporting para-planners and 'back office' staff ready to progress to the adviser role.
- Sole Trader IFAs looking to achieve greater efficiency (and profitability) through the economies of scale achieved in a larger firm.
Para-planning and Administration Support
We recognise the importance of providing quality 'back office' support in order to assist our advisers in their day-to-day activities.
A national recruitment agency recently described us as 'a truly 21st century employer', as we believe that flexibility is the key to performance and high job satisfaction.
We value team members with the organisational skills and motivation to develop in both administrative and para-planning positions. Recent appointments have been made with individuals who are from both financial, and non-financial services backgrounds.
