We offer careers that provide endless opportunity – helping millions of individuals and businesses thrive and creating financial and digital solutions that the world now takes for granted.

At Barclays, we offer a hybrid working experience that blends the positives of working alongside colleagues at our onsite locations, together with working from home. We have a structured approach where colleagues work at an onsite location on fixed, ‘anchor’, days of the week, for a minimum of two days a week or more, as set by the business area (or nearest equivalent if working part-time hours). Please discuss the working pattern requirements for the role you are applying for with the hiring manager. Please note that as we continue to embed our hybrid working environment, we remain in a test and learn phase, which means that working arrangements may be subject to change on reasonable notice to ensure we meet the needs of our business.

•    Being directly accountable for a portfolio of clients in respect to their day to day banking administration requirements, across a range of products and services
•    Building and monitoring relationships with the clients, working alongside the Relationship Manager to ensure a quality service is provided at all times
•    Undertaking proactive client calls and ensuring that Relationship Managers follow up on all client leads
•    Handling incoming queries from clients and arranging client meetings as requested by the Relationship Manager, and ensuring that all actions are completed
•    Facilitating client meetings independently, where appropriate, and ensuring that Relationship Managers adhere to the relevant Client Due Diligence policy
•    Contributing towards the financial targets of the Relationship Managers
•    Ensuring that standards, both legal and regulatory, are adhered to, in order to avoid exposing the business to undue risk
•    Developing relationships with other parts of Barclays to ensure that clients have access to the best possible solution from Barclays

What we’re looking for:
•    Action oriented and organised with the ability to handle a number of tasks simultaneously and prioritise accordingly
•    Self-motivated, able to work on their own initiative and remain calm under pressure
•    Excellent interpersonal and influencing skills are essential to the role, as well as the ability to work as part of a team

Skills that will help you in the role:
•    Logical and structured approach to achieving desired outcomes along with good written and oral communication required to communicate across all levels
•    High integrity and trust due to the sensitive nature of information handled

Where will you be working?

The Barclays offices are surrounded by good quality shops and it’s only a 5 minute walk to the beautiful harbour with numerous sea view restaurants and bars.
