Show Transcript
Hello there, my name is Jason Hurwood. I’d like to talk to you about a career with Nationwide as a senior financial consultant. We really are in a unique position with a pending RDR proposition. We’re a mutual we have over 15 million members and in excess of 700 branches.
Our strategy is clear and we’re building a proposition to be recognised as the most professional, ethical and productive regulated team in the United Kingdom.
Firstly, we want to be recognised as a trusted brand on the high street. As a mutual we serve our members and look to protect their needs on an on-going basis.
Secondly, we’re building a full financial planning service. In addition to the normal protection and investment needs we’re also extending out into Inheritance Tax Planning, Annuities, Income Draw Down and Pension Transfers.
We’re also central to Nationwide’s growth plans. The board has given us full backing to ensure we can give our members full advice and recommendation across the entire product range. We’re also looking to deliver superb marketing support to ensure that all of our customers and new customers want to come and see us and take advantage of this great offering.
And finally, we’re building an inclusive and engaging business where we work together with a sales force to drive the agenda and build a proposition for the future.
Nationwide supports our SFCs in a number of ways. We provide full support on the Level 4 qualification, both with training course, online support, and dedicated telephone support. Our track record in achievement of Level 4 is superb, amongst the best in the industry with nearly 90% pass rate. In addition we have a fully developed CPD programme and training support to ensure you really are the right full financial planning advisor for the future.
My vision for the future senior financial consultant for Nationwide is to be known as the most professional and most ethical advisor on the high street. We have a strong reputation in Nationwide with a fantastic brand that looks after our members. Senior financial consultants are central to that place and have a real place in the future at Nationwide especially with the challenges that the RDR brings.
Here at Nationwide we pride ourselves in putting our customers first. It’s something that sets us apart. As such, we’re looking for only the best, qualified Financial Consultants to ensure that we continue to deliver the sort of service our customers have come to expect.
As a Senior Financial Consultant, you’ve an unrivalled base to build on. Not only do you have an outstanding product portfolio, but our one tier sales force means there are very few limits on the clients you deal with. And as you’ll be based in one of our branches, you’ll get to work closely with your colleagues – identifying customers’ needs and offering honest, tailored advice that will help you forge long-term relationships.
