Competitive base salary commensurate with experience, plus a standard benefits package. Licensing and designation costs supported in accordance with firm policy.

ABOUT THE ROLE
If you take real satisfaction in getting things done — accurately, completely, and on time — this role is built for you. As a Client Service Specialist, you execute the transactional and administrative work that keeps our clients' insurance and investment affairs running: application preparation, account updates, deposits, withdrawals, beneficiary changes, carrier follow-up, and everything in between. You'll work from a centralized task queue with clear service standards, manage cases from start to finish, and build genuine specialized expertise — with room to grow into senior and product-specialty levels as our Advisor Support Model matures. All work is administrative processing performed under advisor direction and within a clearly defined scope; advice and suitability rest with the sponsoring advisor.
ABOUT SPM
SPM Financial and SPM Benefits form an integrated financial services firm headquartered in London, Ontario. We have spent more than 30 years building deep, long-term relationships with our clients across wealth management, retirement planning, insurance, and group benefits. Our clients include individuals, families, business owners, and corporate plan sponsors across Ontario and beyond. We are a partnership-led firm of approximately 40 people who genuinely enjoy working together. We are redesigning how client service is delivered through our Advisor Support Model — a team-based structure that gives our service professionals clear ownership, defined standards, and a real career path. Our tagline — Manage Your Risk. Grow Your Wealth. — is also the test we apply to every client interaction.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
- Process insurance and investment service requests from the centralized task queue through to completion.
- Prepare and process applications, account maintenance requests, policy changes, deposits, withdrawals, and beneficiary changes as administrative processing under advisor direction.
- Review documentation for accuracy, completeness, and compliance requirements.
- Conduct carrier and third-party follow-up to obtain information, approvals, and status updates — and proactively advance cases.
- Maintain comprehensive records in EquiSoft, closing every task with clear documentation of actions and outcomes.
- Communicate professionally with clients, advisors, carriers, and financial institutions on in-process transactions.
- Develop advanced knowledge of specific processing functions and products, and share it with the team.
WHAT YOU BRING
Must-haves
- 2–5 years of experience in insurance administration, investment administration, financial services operations, or a related processing environment.
- Post-secondary diploma in Business Administration, Office Administration, Financial Services, or a related discipline (or equivalent experience).
- Knowledge of insurance and investment administration processes and transactional workflows.
- Excellent attention to detail and a proven ability to follow complex processes through to completion.
- Strong organizational and time-management skills across multiple concurrent cases.
- Discretion and care in handling sensitive personal information, consistent with PIPEDA and firm privacy standards.
- Proficiency with Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook, and PDF applications.
Nice-to-haves
- Experience with EquiSoft or a similar CRM / workflow management system.
- Additional coursework or training in insurance, investments, or financial services administration.
- LLQP and/or mutual fund licence — an asset, not a requirement. We'll fund a licensing path in your first year if you want one.
WHY SPM
- A role that matters: our service team is the engine of the client experience, and our new Advisor Support Model is built around making that work visible, valued, and measured.
- A defined career path: the Client Service family includes Specialist, Specialist II, and Team Lead levels, with room to specialize in insurance or investments as the model matures.
- Firm-funded licensing: we support a funded LLQP and mutual fund licensing path within your first year if you choose to pursue registration.
- A standard benefits package and a professional development budget.
- A workplace culture that values clarity, integrity, and follow-through — in a partnership-structured firm where good ideas move quickly.
