Additionally, you will play a vital role in sharing consultant feedback and market intelligence internally to support the continuous improvement of our products and business.

* Excellent communication and presentation skills with the ability to articulate complex investment strategies to a consultant audience.

* Generous pension scheme - Aviva will contribute up to 14%, depending on what you put in

In this role you’ll be ‘Certified’ under the Financial Conduct Authority / Prudential Regulation Authority’s Senior Managers and Certification Regime (SMCR). This means that we’ll need to complete some regulatory background checks on you before you take up your role and we’ll need to ask you some questions on an annual basis to make sure you remain ‘fit and proper’ and competent to carry out your role. We’ll provide training on what holding a SMCR role means when you join us and annually thereafter.
