About the role

This role will be on the Dividends team, who are responsible for ensuring all dividend payments are released to clients in an accurate and timely manner. In the past 12 months we have processed over 30,000 events and paid more than £1.2b to our clients.

Whilst learning the Dividends process, you will develop a knowledge of reconciliation, trading, transfers, global withholding tax and regulation of nearly all types of investment.

You will work as part of the overall team but will ultimately have sole responsibility for individual cases.

  • Ensure clients' accounts are accurately updated in a timely manner with any dividend payments, meeting CASS obligations.
  • Responding to client queries within a timely manner, ensuring clients are informed first time.
  • Confidently liaise with other companies and internal departments, quickly resolving any queries that arise.
  • Assisting with daily, weekly, monthly and annual reports and audits.
  • Ensuring our underpinned database that populates the end of year tax certificates is accurate and up to date.
