Job ID: J16741

Description

A leading investment management firm has a 12 month contract opportunity in their Client Services team. The role will be working directly with the Sales team to on-board, manage and oversee relationships with distributors and platforms across Europe.

This is a growing team in the business and a great opportunity to work on evolving a program around how the firm distributes their products across Europe.

The role is ideal for someone who would be comfortable working on a more strategic project and is happy working outside a defined framework.

Key requirements:

• Minimum of 5 years' experience working directly in Asset Management in a client services role working with funds
• A good understanding of distribution chains and a general understanding of European regulations (e.g. MiFID II)
• Experience in establishing distribution agreements and service level agreements
• A proactive, flexible and adaptable "self-starter"
• European language skills (German or Nordic) would be beneficial
• Ability to interact at all levels of the organisation
• Proven project management and problem solving skills

As this is a growth area for the business, there is potential for the role to go permanent after the initial 1 year contract.
