Junior Customer Excellence Associate

Job Title: Junior Customer Excellence Associate (Full Time)

We do this through expert, affordable and easy investing. We're a small team working on the region's first and fastest growing investment and personal finance platform, making investing easy, low-cost and transparent, with a human touch woven into every step of the process.
