Contribute to the development of comprehensive financial plans, integrating investments with broader client goals
Translate investment recommendations into clear, client-friendly planning narratives
Actively participate in client meetings, with a clear path toward presenting analysis and recommendations
Evaluate prospective client situations and articulate opportunities through a planning-led framework.

Partner closely with lead advisors to deliver a consistent, high-quality client experience
Improve workflows, reporting, and internal processes to enhance efficiency and scalability
Support a high-performing team environment through collaboration and shared accountability.

Series 7/66 and Life & Health licenses (or willingness to obtain)
DESIRED CHARACTERISTICS
Strong investment intuition and curiosity about markets
Ability to communicate complex ideas in simple, practical terms
Interest in building long-term client relationships, not just managing portfolios
Alignment with a planning-led, advice-driven philosophy
SALARY RANGE: $90,000 - $120,000 with bonus potential
BENEFITS INCLUDE
401(k) plan with employer match
Medical insurance including health, dental, and vision coverage
