This is an exceptional opportunity for a driven and commercially minded individual looking to build a long-term career within financial services and corporate sales. Whether you have experience in recruitment, B2B sales, estate agency, brokerage, professional services or another relationship-led environment, this role offers the chance to develop into a trusted adviser to corporate clients whilst earning significant rewards for your success.

As a Portfolio Manager, you will be responsible for developing your own portfolio of corporate clients, identifying new opportunities, building lasting relationships and helping businesses manage international payments and foreign exchange requirements. You'll receive ongoing training, support and mentorship from experienced professionals in a high-performance environment that values ambition, accountability and continuous improvement.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Research and identify prospective corporate clients across a range of sectors.
  • Build and maintain a pipeline of qualified business opportunities.

  • Understand clients' international trading activity, operational challenges and currency exposure.
  • Present tailored foreign exchange and international payment solutions to prospective clients.
  • Work closely with internal specialists and senior management to develop client solutions.
  • Build long-term client relationships and grow your portfolio over time.
  • Maintain high standards of professionalism, organisation and communication throughout the sales process.
  • Contribute positively to the culture and success of the wider team

Who we are looking for:

  • Previous experience within a sales, business development, recruitment, brokerage or relationship management role.
  • Strong communication and relationship-building skills.
  • Ambitious, driven and motivated by success.
  • Comfortable engaging with senior decision-makers.
  • Resilient and capable of handling rejection positively.
  • A strong work ethic with a desire to learn and continuously improve.
  • Professional, disciplined and accountable in your approach.
  • Able to work effectively within a high-performance team environment.
  • Previous financial services or foreign exchange experience is not essential.

Why you will love working here:

  • Competitive basic salary
  • Uncapped commission structure
  • Genuine long-term career progression opportunities
  • Ongoing training, mentorship and professional development
  • Exposure to financial markets, international business and corporate finance
  • High-performance culture with direct access to senior leadership

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
