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. As a dedicated entrepreneur, you understand that growing a practice is all about building long-term relationships.  You know how to leverage your external networks and centres of influence and welcome the freedom to grow your own practice. Most importantly, you realize that your clients are your greatest asset, and your priority is providing investment and financial planning advice to help them meet their unique goals.

  • Client-Centric: Providing client-centric investment solutions through a financial planning framework, aligning with Global Sales Principles. 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.

  • 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.
