💰 Associate Advisor | $120K–$140K Stretch + DOE
🔥 Want to build a career as a Financial Planner without sacrificing your work-life balance?
I’m working on an opportunity with an established, fee-based wealth management firm serving high-net-worth clients with comprehensive investment management and financial planning services.
They’re looking for an Associate Advisor to work directly with Lead Advisors, gaining hands-on exposure to sophisticated financial planning while developing the skills to eventually manage client relationships independently.
This is an ideal opportunity for an early-career advisor who wants to deepen their expertise in tax, estate, retirement, and investment planning while following a clear path toward becoming a Lead Advisor.
💡 What You’ll Do
-
Support Lead Advisors in delivering comprehensive financial planning for high-net-worth clients
-
Prepare and update financial plans covering retirement, investments, taxes, and estate planning
-
Research planning strategies and prepare client meeting materials
-
Participate in client meetings and gain valuable relationship-management experience
-
Track follow-ups and ensure client action items are completed
-
Build your technical planning expertise and progress toward a future Financial Planner role
Requirements
🧠 Who They’re Looking For
-
1–2 years of financial planning experience
-
CFP designation or coursework completed / nearing completion
-
Familiarity with financial planning software such as eMoney or MoneyGuidePro
-
Strong analytical, organizational, and communication skills
-
A client-first mindset and genuine interest in comprehensive wealth planning
-
Someone motivated to learn, grow, and eventually step into a Lead Advisor role
🌟 Why This Opportunity Stands Out
-
💰 $120K–$140K stretch compensation, depending on experience
-
🏡 Only one day in the office per week
-
🎉 Family Fridays — finish work at 1 PM every Friday
-
🏥 100% employer-paid medical, dental, and vision
-
🌴 3 weeks of PTO + 40 hours of sick time
-
🎄 The firm shuts down for Christmas week
-
💼 401(k) match of up to $8,000 after one year
-
✈️ After five years, earn 4 weeks of PTO and $5,000 toward a vacation
-
📈 A clear growth path toward becoming a Lead Advisor
