I’m pleased to be partnering with a well-established platform provider that works closely with the UK financial adviser community. With a strong brand, compelling proposition and exceptional staff retention, this is a business that has built its reputation on long-term partnerships and consistent delivery.
They’re looking to appoint a Business Development Director to cover Scotland & Northern Ireland.
The Role You’ll be responsible for building and managing relationships with financial advisers across the region, promoting a broad and competitive platform proposition alongside associated investment solutions.
Operating within a high-performing, franchise-style model, this opportunity will suit a genuine self-starter — someone comfortable taking full ownership of their territory. The role offers a balanced blend of strategic account management and proactive new business development, rather than a purely transactional sales position.
Success will come from developing deep, consultative relationships, driving platform adoption and increasing assets under administration across your region.

Drive platform adoption and asset growth

Work collaboratively within a small, high-calibre team structure
Candidate Requirements
Proven BDM / BDD experience within the platform market
Strong understanding of the UK intermediary market
Professional, credible approach with excellent communication skills
Self-motivated and disciplined, with the ability to manage a broad territory independently
Comfortable operating within a close-knit, franchise-style environment
What’s on Offer
Basic salary up to £100,000
OTE £200,000+
Uncapped earning potential
Excellent brand and market reputation
Strong culture with exceptional retention levels
Long-term career progression within a stable and growing business
