Remote File Checker – Chartered IFA Firm – Fully Remote, anywhere in the UK – £45K–£46K + benefits job at London Full Time NEW

Fully Remote | Chartered Firm | High-Quality Advisers | Career Progression

Are you a Diploma-qualified paraplanner, file checker or ex-adviser who wants a role with zero sales pressure, no client chasing, and complete flexibility — while still using your technical knowledge every day?

This is a rare opportunity to join one of the UK’s most respected Chartered IFA firms, home to some of the highest-performing advisers in the country. Their advice standards are exceptional — which means you’re reviewing quality work, not firefighting poor advice all day.

If you want a role where your expertise is valued, your voice matters, and you can work from anywhere in the UK, this could be the perfect next step.

Why This Role Stands Out

• 100% remote – work from anywhere in the UK
• Chartered, award-winning firm with an outstanding reputation
• High-quality advisers (genuinely some of the top earners in the UK)
• Supportive, modern compliance culture – not box-ticking, not punitive
• Clear progression into senior file checking, technical, or compliance roles
• No client management, no sales pressure, no weekend work
• Stable, secure role ideal for paraplanners wanting a new direction

The Role

You’ll be part of the compliance team, ensuring the firm continues to deliver exceptional, FCA-compliant advice. Your work directly protects clients and supports advisers in maintaining the highest standards.

Your responsibilities include:

• Reviewing advice files across pensions, investments, protection, bonds, trusts, VCT/EIS/BR, at-retirement planning and more
• Ensuring suitability reports and recommendations meet FCA and internal standards
• Providing clear, constructive feedback to advisers
• Identifying risks, inconsistencies or gaps and escalating where needed
• Supporting the wider compliance team with ad-hoc projects
• Helping maintain the firm’s Chartered-level advice quality

This is not a “tick-box” compliance role — you’ll be part of a collaborative team that genuinely values technical insight and encourages continuous improvement.

What We’re Looking For

• Level 4 Diploma in Financial Planning (essential)
• Experience in file checking, paraplanning, report writing or advising
• Strong understanding of pensions and investments
• Confident decision-maker with excellent communication skills
• Someone who enjoys technical work and wants a long-term, stable role

Who This Role Is Perfect For

• A paraplanner who wants to move into compliance without losing technical challenge
• A file checker looking for a better culture and higher-quality advice to review
• An ex-adviser who wants stability, no sales pressure, and a fully remote lifestyle
• Someone who wants to work for a firm that genuinely values professionalism

If you want a role where:

• You’re trusted
• You’re respected
• You’re not micromanaged
• You can work from anywhere
• And you’re part of a firm that actually cares about doing things properly

…then this is the one.
