For my first co-op work term, I had the pleasure of working at O’Farrell Financial Services. O’Farrell Financial Services is a local financial firm with four offices dispersed throughout farming communities south of Ottawa. During my duration at O’Farrell Financial I performed a variety of tasks, ranging from Processing, Marketing to working along side the Large Case Team.While in Processing, I was tasked with the creation and closing of files. I helped develop a new process for closing files as the regular process was outdated, I then traveled to other offices to ensure the integrity of the closed files before organizing. I was also able to perform transactions for companies (switches, redemptions, deposits), these processes had their own structure to follow and required lots of company contact to ensure they were completed correctly. While in Processing I could develop my skills in attention to detail as well as time management, as all transactions had to be completed in a timely manner for the clients. I was also able to work with the Marketing Coordinator to plan the 20th Year Anniversary party for O’Farrell Financial Services. This required lots of client lists and organizing who should be invited, and who has been invited. This was vital as a missed invitation could lead to losing certain clients. I also had to coordinate with other companies to ensure we had all the necessary supplies by the correct dates.Finally, I was able to work with the Large Case Team who handles all the large/most profitable clients at O’Farrell Financial. These clients needed everything from Life Insurance to Farming Succession Plans. While working for the Large Case Team I was also able to help create a Mortgage Tracking Sheet, as they were a new product O’Farrell Financial was creating. I learned how to work with important clients and help create the beginnings of financial plans for them.
