Let's Write Africa's Story Together!

Old Mutual is a firm believer in the African opportunity and our diverse talent reflects this.

A paraplanner in South Africa’s financial services sector is a professional who supports financial planners and advisors by handling the technical, research, and administrative aspects of financial planning. While not client-facing in most cases, paraplanners play a crucial role in ensuring that financial advice is accurate, compliant, and well-documented.
