This position is designed for someone who already has financial planning experience, industry education or professional credentials and wants to substantially deepen their capabilities.
You will work closely with one or more advisors across the entire client relationship, helping prepare for meetings, update financial plans, identify planning issues, coordinate implementation and ensure recommendations and commitments are followed through to completion.
Depending on your experience, you may also attend client meetings and progressively take on greater responsibility for financial planning and client relationships.
For someone who ultimately wants to become a Financial Advisor or Financial Planner, this can be an exceptional three-to-five-year development opportunity.
