My daily duties

I prepar bond applications and submit to the different banks. Will follow up with the banks daily and give feedback to the clients. Attend to queries from clients and educate them where needed. If there is a problem with an application, I will discuss it with the bank to resolve it. We work in an open plan office. I will interact with my co-workers but will also at time work on my own. We are in a very stressful environment as we need to assist and get a bond approved in the time frame that the offer of purchase allow us. We negotiate with the banks for the best interest rate. The most challenging aspect at the moment to get the bonds approved at the best interest rate as possible as the banks are very difficult with the approval of bonds due to the economy.

Pros: We are a great team and I love to see satisfied customers.
Cons: There are a lot of politics in the office. The salaries of the people are different and it all depends on who you are. Some people have more privelages than other.

Typical work day

Good day, We receive the offer to purchases from the clients. Will contact them and discuss the process of the bond application. Obtain documents from the clients and submit the application to the banks. Follow up with the banks on a daily basis and discussed issues with the banks and clients if there are problems When you get a final quotation from the bank, negotiate for better rates. Discuss the quotation with the client and ensure that they understand the process. Make sure the bank sends the instructions to the attorneys to proceed with the registration of the bond. Follow up with the attorneys for registration. I work on my own and ensure my work is always up to date. I will work overtime if I am not up to date. I get along with co-workers and will assist when they are on leave or if they need help.

Pros: We have a big and well known company and I've learned a lot and is still learning.
Cons: We don't have pension and I can't afford to take a seperate pension as I am single.
