Employees are encouraged to build client relationships, broaden their technical knowledge and progress their careers rather than remaining restricted to one narrow area of work. \n It should particularly appeal to someone who enjoys working with owner-managed businesses, wants greater autonomy and client exposure, and likes the idea of progressing within a respected independent firm rather than a heavily structured corporate environment. \n Please contact Ben Copsey at BC Financial Search or apply for more details.
