“Having worked as a Financial Advisor in other retail banks, the main difference between Nationwide and the other organisations I have worked at is you get more thinking time and more time to develop branch relationships and stronger relationships with customers.

I have also been amazed by the warmth that most customers’ feel towards the Society.  This definitely helps to make this a pleasant environment in which to work. And as the branches have bags of opportunity to do well, the job satisfaction and earnings potential make Nationwide a rewarding place to be.

I also like the direction of regulated sales here; our product range is getting bigger and better and the support in getting to Level 4 Diploma qualified is welcome.

I enjoy coming to work and how many people can say that?  I work for a strong and trusted organisation with enthusiastic branch colleagues and a wonderful customer base. The rest is up to me.”

“Nationwide was my first employer on finishing my A levels. Having worked in so many different roles in the branch network and the centre at Swindon, I would say it was the diversity and opportunities that you can find (if you are willing to be flexible and committed) that attracted me to Nationwide. Well that and the fact that earning’s potential is fantastic – hard work and dedication can really pay off.

Your relationship with the branches is key, it’s two way. If you support them with coaching and development they will reward you with good quality referral. However there is also a wide availability of resources to actively self generate business as well.

In addition the range of products we have available and the support you can expect is second to none. Add the fact that you have the Nationwide brand behind you and you benefit from security and completive edge.”

You need to be equally consistent across sales, services, training, feedback and compliance etc to be successful. When it all comes together, the fact that you can help make a real difference to customer’s lives by protecting them and safeguarding their futures, then it makes all your efforts worthwhile."

“I’ve worked for Nationwide 22 years and would choose NBS again and again over our competitors as they completely understand what it is to care for customers. I love being an SFC as I get to meet everyday people and make massive differences to their lives. Getting a hug after a first appointment shows you the sort of rapport and fun we get from our work. And if we get that right we don’t have to worry about sales! As important though is the relationship with the branches – the secret to my success! Team relationships are essential and giving back to the team means you’ll reap the rewards. Simple but so true.

What’s more as earning’s potential is uncapped the sky’s the limit. If you want to earn six figures this is the place to work.
If you want to come to join a company that loves their customers, listens to and rewards their people – then Nationwide is the place for you.”
