About Liquid Asset Partners
Liquid Asset Partners is a growing whisky cask brokerage based in Brentwood. We work with private clients who are interested in purchasing and owning Scotch whisky casks as tangible assets.
As our client base continues to expand, we are looking for a confident and ambitious Junior Broker to join our sales team as a Client Opener.
The Role
This is an entry-level brokerage position suited to someone who already has some experience working as an opener, appointment setter or junior broker within a similar telephone-based sales environment.
Your main responsibility will be to speak with inbound enquiries, understand each prospective client’s circumstances and interests, qualify the opportunity and arrange a follow-up conversation with one of our senior brokers.
You will often be the first person a prospective client speaks to, so you must be professional, engaging and capable of building trust quickly.
This role provides an opportunity to develop your knowledge of the whisky cask market, improve your brokerage skills and progress into a closing broker position based on performance.
Key Responsibilities
- Contact and qualify inbound enquiries
- Build rapport with prospective clients over the telephone
- Understand the client’s interest, experience, objectives and available budget
- Clearly introduce Liquid Asset Partners and the whisky cask market
- Identify suitable and genuinely interested prospects
- Arrange qualified appointments for senior brokers
- Follow up with leads by telephone and email
- Maintain accurate and detailed records within the company CRM
- Work closely with senior brokers to improve lead quality and conversion
- Meet individual call, qualification and appointment targets
- Complete ongoing product, sales and compliance training
What We Are Looking For
- Applicants must have previous experience working within a brokerage, investment-sales, alternative-assets or similar telephone-based sales environment.
- The ideal candidate will have:
- Previous experience as an opener, appointment setter or junior broker
- A confident and professional telephone manner
- Strong communication and rapport-building skills
- Experience qualifying prospective clients
- The ability to ask relevant questions and listen carefully
- A motivated, competitive and target-driven attitude
- Good organisation and attention to detail
- The confidence to speak with professional and high-net-worth clients
- A desire to learn and progress within a brokerage career
- The ability to work effectively within a close-knit sales team
- Previous knowledge of whisky is beneficial but not essential, as full product and market training will be provided.
What We Offer
- Qualified inbound enquiries
- Structured sales and product training
- Direct support from experienced senior brokers
- A clear progression route towards becoming a closing broker
- A professional office environment in Brentwood
- Performance-related commission and incentives
- Regular coaching and development
- The opportunity to join a growing business and develop a long-term career
Working Environment
This is a full-time, office-based role at our Brentwood office. It is not a remote position.
