About the Role

We’re a growing Asset Finance brokerage who believe great people matter more than rigid schedules. Flexibility, trust, and a genuinely supportive culture are at the heart of how we work. We are now looking for a confident, motivated Assistant to join our journey.

This role is perfect for someone who loves talking to people, building real relationships, and being part of a growing business — without sacrificing work-life balance.

You’ll work closely with our Managing Directors, becoming a key part of the business by helping nurture client relationships, move new and existing opportunities forward, and keep things running smoothly behind the scenes. No two days will look the same. You’ll be involved in customer conversations, business growth, and day-to-day operations.

No experience is necessary but the person we are looking for will be confident, proactive, and comfortable picking up the phone — including cold calling. Enjoy connecting with people, building rapport, and helping turn conversations into opportunities. Be organised, motivated, and excited to grow with a business, not just work in one.

Key Responsibilities
  • Making warm and cold outbound calls using existing and new data
  • Keeping in regular contact with previous customers to progress new opportunities
  • Contacting and qualifying new leads
  • Obtaining and accurately recording customer information
  • Building and maintaining strong, long-term customer relationships
  • Always providing an excellent level of customer service
  • Preparing documentation and assisting with general administrative tasks as required
  • Handling and maintaining customer data accurately and confidentially
  • Supporting the Managing Directors with ad-hoc tasks where needed
What We’re Looking For
  • Confidence
  • A professional telephone manner
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills
  • Comfortable speaking to customers and building rapport over the phone
  • Competent IT skills, including Microsoft Office, Excel, and email
  • Good attention to detail and accuracy in data handling
  • Confident in literacy and numeracy
  • Self‑motivated, reliable, and adaptable
What We Offer
  • Opportunity to grow with a developing and ambitious business
  • Minimum Wage to £14 per hour (depending on experience) + Bonus
  • Supportive
