We are seeking local representative services to be provided on a self-employed basis to assist with local visits and enquiries.
Finders International provides probate genealogy and support services to the legal and public sectors and we pride ourselves on delivering a fast, friendly, and professional service. This is an outside IR35 engagement, meaning you will operate as an independent contractor, not as an employee of Finders International. The volume of assignments will vary and is dependent on company requirements, which may fluctuate from month to month. There will be no obligation for Finders International to offer work beyond agreed assignments and no obligation for you to accept work.

· Carry out door to door enquiries with the general public to assist the Company with genealogy research and locating potential beneficiaries.
· Visit potential beneficiaries at their home or work address, or another location specified by the Company, to inform them of, and to sell, the Company’s services.
· Make enquiries, discuss sensitive information, confirm personal data and family history, and build rapport with potential clients.
· Deliver or collect paperwork to/from potential beneficiaries and professional clients.
· Carry out ad hoc visits to registry offices, solicitors, post offices, and other public places.
