Description
The Company
Octopus Legacy is one of the UK's fastest growing startups, helping over 1 million people plan for and navigate through death - but we're just getting started. After our founder Sam lost his mum suddenly, we built what the market had never seen: a service that combines estate planning and bereavement support with something genuinely human. Voice notes. Music. Recipes. A legacy that actually means something.
We're not competing in this space. We're redefining it. Backed by Octopus Group, we're the best positioned business in the market to scale across UK financial services, and we're moving fast. This role is how we get there.
The Role
As an Financial Adviser at Octopus Legacy you’ll be at the heart of one of our most exciting growth areas: delivering holistic, financial planning led advice to clients
You’ll have the opportunity to build your own book of clients from day one, with warm leads generated through our unique partnerships with over 100 UK charities, our will writing platform, and our wider Octopus Group network. This isn’t a cold calling role, it’s a genuine opportunity to build a meaningful, long term advisory practice within a high growth business.
You’ll sit within a broader financial services function but will have significant autonomy to shape your client relationships and approach. If you’re a driven, client centric adviser who wants to build something meaningful at scale, this role is for you.
