As an Investment Specialist, you will focus on developing and deepening client relationships by providing high quality advice and service within the mass affluent market.

Conducting outbound communications and proactive calling to prospects to remain top-of-mind for future business opportunities. Conducting complimentary needs analysis across several financial statements, including competitor statements.
  • Community Involvement: Participating actively in local professional and community events and associations to develop and expand your network. Identifying opportunities to deliver community information sessions and financial seminars to grow prospects. Building and maintaining a market profile in the assigned market area. Networking with investment industry specialists while managing a small budget for independent marketing-based activities.

  • You’re goal oriented and entrepreneurial. You can work independently as a self-motivated entrepreneur with minimal supervision and as part of a larger team.
  • Extensive knowledge of competitive offerings, market trends, economic conditions, and the regulatory environment.
  • A valid driver's license and access to a vehicle, to meet clients and prospects within the designated district.

 What’s in it for you?

  • An entrepreneurial culture with the freedom to develop your career.
  • A fast-paced, flexible work environment where you can set your own hours and meet clients when and where it’s convenient for them.
  • A compensation structure that rewards growing and maintaining your client base.
  • Access to leading-edge resources to support your growth including dedicated marketing support, powerful mobile technology, leading CRM, portfolio, and financial planning software.
  • The ability to build long-lasting client relationships through exceptional advice and service.
