Financial Advisor

Nearly 23 years ago, 23-year-old Matthew Dicken grew frustrated with the issues plaguing the financial services industry and set out on a mission to change the industry standard and prioritize clients in retirement planning. What started as a small two-person team in a 1,200 sqft office in Louisville, KY, has evolved into the Strategic Wealth Designers we now know, with 18 locations across the U.S. and almost 100 employees. As we continue to grow, we're looking for passionate individuals to help take us to even greater heights.

At Strategic Wealth Designers (SWD) , we are a full-service financial firm specializing in assisting individuals who are near or in retirement. We pride ourselves on fostering a collaborative and close-knit environment, and we are looking for a new team member who can complement our team’s values and culture.

We’re seeking an experienced, patient, organized, and efficient individual who is excited to contribute to the success of our business. The right person will exceed expectations and develop strong, lasting working relationships with our growing team. If you bring a positive attitude to work each day and are motivated by personal and professional growth, we would love to hear from you.
