  Who we're looking for
  We're looking for someone to produce client and fund reports. You'll have a keen eye (and enough knowledge of funds) to spot any problems, and sort them out.
  We need someone who's focused on doing great work for clients. That means you won't mind doing some of the legwork, but also ready to have your own ideas and make them happen. It's a chance to work on lots of projects, with lots of teams, and with several countries. And you'll be someone the team can rely on when the manager's not around.
  About Schroders
  We're a global investment manager. We help institutions, intermediaries and individuals around the world invest money to meet their goals, fulfil their ambitions, and prepare for the future.

  The base
  You'll be based at our Broadlands Business Campus near Horsham in West Sussex. It's home to our EMEA Operations and Technology Operations hub.

  The team
  Oversee and produce the day-to-day production of full, accurate and timely reports, making sure we hit internal and external deadlines. Maintain controls along the way with procedure documents for reporting processes, errors and best practice. Be part of integrating and producing global, regional and country templates so we have accurate information and meet compliance requirements. Support the team become more efficient by spotting weaknesses in our process, suggesting and implementing solutions either individually or as part of wider projects.

  • Able to work under time pressure and handle a number of tasks at a time
  • A really good communicator
  • Good at working in a team, and with other teams
