About the Role

Level: 4

Department: Distribution

Location: Homebased, United Kingdom

Contract Type: Permanent

Regulated/Non-Regulated: Non-Regulated

At Quilter, our purpose is to help create brighter financial futures for every generation. We do this by supporting advisers and their clients in navigating the complexities of financial planning with confidence, care, and clarity. By combining strong relationships, innovative technology, and a commitment to high-quality advice, we enable advisers to build more successful, sustainable businesses while delivering better outcomes for the people they serve. Our focus is on making it easier to do business, continually evolving how we work to meet the needs of a changing world.

Our Relationship team partner with financial advice companies, specifically building relationships with their principals, and self-employed advisers via our National business, Quilter Financial Advisers. We provide a home for those who wish to grow their own adviser firms, trading under their own name, and those that wish to trade as a self-employed adviser under the Quilter name, whilst using our technology, compliance services and our investment proposition.

As a member of the Distribution team this vital role provides dedicated expertise to assist the Head of Advice Development and the wider leadership team. This is a great opportunity to support the development of the advice business of tomorrow by working with new technologies and new ways of working to secure Quilter’s position as one of the most progressive advisory firms in the UK.

We have a fantastic proposition, and our goal is to make it noticeable easier for our advisers to conduct business. This role is pivotal in driving the strategic vision and execution of initiatives across the Quilter Channel.

You will support the Head of Advice Development in enabling Quilter Channel teams to operate effectively, ensuring robust governance, adherence to policies, and continuous improvement in how activities are delivered.

This role plays a central part in driving the ongoing development of the function, working across a broad stakeholder network to identify opportunities to enhance processes, streamline ways of working, and embed best practice. You will contribute to shaping and evolving operational frameworks, moving beyond day-to-day support to actively improve how the department delivers against its objectives.

A key focus of the role is the implementation, optimisation, and ongoing development of tools and processes that improve efficiency and effectiveness. This includes supporting the rollout and continuous enhancement of AI-enabled solutions, working with subject matter experts to identify opportunities to automate, simplify, and improve day-to-day activities across teams. You will maintain oversight of these improvements to ensure sustainable adoption and measurable impact.

You will act as a connector between teams, data, and processes—helping to identify inefficiencies, enhance data quality, and strengthen the underlying processes that support future scalability. This includes contributing to the design and refinement of reporting, governance processes, and operational controls to ensure they are fit for purpose and continuously improved.

You will lead on the coordination and continuous improvement of governance and reporting activities, including preparation of management information, committee materials, and tracking of audit actions. A key aspect of this will be enhancing the quality, consistency, and usability of outputs to better support decision-making.

In addition, you will support the preparation and ongoing improvement of regulatory processes, ensuring that submissions are accurate, controlled, and delivered through efficient, well-defined workflows.

Throughout all aspects of the role, you will champion a mindset of continuous improvement, with a focus on delivering better outcomes for customers and advisers through smarter, more efficient, and more scalable ways of working.

About You

  • Excellent stakeholder management with the ability to build effective relationships and navigate across levels and functions with ease and diplomacy.
  • Results orientated and natural problem solver.
  • Highly organised with strong attention to detail, particularly when working at pace. You must have the ability to multitask and manage longer term projects alongside a busy day to day agenda of reporting and BAU tasks.
