Why choose the Channel Islands?

The Channel Islands has an excellent client base, largely dominated by Financial Services clients similar to those found in London, with a diverse range of clients; from banks and trust companies to property funds and a smattering of commercial clients.

What's more, with a short commute to work and an even shorter walk to clients taking around 10-15 minutes, the balance of work and life is arguably unrivalled by any of the major cities. There are miles of sandy beaches, trendy roof-top terrace bars and bustling town centres complemented by secluded coves.

The Channel Islands offices have superb links with other offices around the world, with recent experienced joiners coming from Australia, Bermuda, and Canada, and recently qualified staff moving to Sydney, Boston and London on secondments.

Next steps....

We are looking for motivated and passionate people with strong A-level results (minimum of 112 UCAS points) and expecting to achieve an upper second class honours degree (2:1) or above.

Like the sound of golden beaches, great water sports, and a client base incorporating some of the biggest names in the finance world? Apply now for our current vacancies. What are you waiting for?
