Aspire Jobs are delighted to be working in an exclusive partnership with our professional services client who are a well-established and growing firm based in West Dorset. They are seeking to recruit a Trust Administrator to join their busy team. This is a perfect time to join a growing and progressive thinking team and firm.
Are you an organised administrator with excellent attention to detail? Do you enjoy working with figures, managing accurate records and being part of a professional team?
Perhaps you already have experience within legal services, finance or trust administration or from within a professional services firm. Or maybe you're looking for the opportunity to develop specialist knowledge in a highly regarded firm where full training will be provided.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join an established Trusts department in a varied role offering long-term career development.
The Role
Working as part of a busy and supportive team, you'll help administer a portfolio of trusts, ensuring everything is managed accurately, efficiently and in line with legal requirements.
No two days are quite the same and you'll be involved in a wide range of administrative and financial tasks. As this is a new role you will be setting up systems and spreadsheets from scratch so a real chance to make the role your own.
Responsibilities will include:
• Assisting with the administration of trusts
• Maintaining accurate records and documentation
• Processing financial transactions
• Preparing trust accounts and supporting financial administration
• Liaising with clients and professional advisers
• Ensuring deadlines are met and files remain compliant
• Providing general administrative support to the Trusts team
About You
We're much more interested in finding the right person than someone with previous trust experience.
You'll probably have:
• Previous administration experience
• Excellent attention to detail
• Good numerical ability and confidence working with figures
• Strong organisational and time management skills
• A methodical approach to your work
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Good IT skills, including Microsoft Office particularly Excel
Experience within a legal practice, financial services, accountancy or trust administration would be an advantage but is by no means essential, as full training will be provided
