You will build an entrepreneurial financial advisory practice from the ground up at the Park Avenue office.

With award-winning training and mentorship, you will prospect, develop client relationships, and grow a sustainable book of business.

What you will do

  • Develop comprehensive financial plans for families, focusing on investment management, risk mitigation, retirement strategy, and complex estate planning.
  • Engage institutional clients to provide corporate and executive market solutions, including BOLI/COLI, buy-sell agreements, and specialized executive benefit packages.
  • Lead proactive business development and prospecting efforts to build and maintain a robust pipeline of high-net-worth and corporate relationships.

Who this is a fit for

  • Demonstrates strong self-discipline and a background in finance, banking, accounting, or professional sales, with the drive to navigate a multi-year business build.

  • Holds (or is willing to obtain) key industry licenses including SIE, Series 7, and 66, or professional designations such as CFP, CLU, or ChFC.

Why this role is remarkable

  • Entrepreneurial Autonomy: Build your own practice and own your book with the freedom of a startup but the backing of a century-old financial giant.
  • World-Class Training: Benefit from a comprehensive, three-year award-winning program covering everything from licensing and practice management to advanced client acquisition strategies.
  • Long-Term Equity: Create recurring revenue through renewal income and bonuses, transitioning from an early-stage build into a mature, high-earning financial services practice.
