Associate Advisor

Who We Are

We are a boutique RIA managing $150M for a select group of clients. Supporting more than 100 families, we have the pleasure of serving retirees, those planning to retire in five years or less, and business owners preparing for life's next chapter. Through our process, we help clients "Retire to Something" with intention. Our tailored retirement, tax, estate, and investment plans guide our clients toward successful retirement goals, and we are seeking someone excited about contributing to this mission. We are a small, high-performing team scaling toward $1B in AUM in five years and we are looking for a growth-minded CFP who's ready and eager to grow into a Lead Advisor within 12-24 months.

About the Role

As the Associate Advisor, you will partner directly with the President to learn and soak in the strategies, philosophies, and infrastructure he's built. Initially, the role will be in support of him and the client set, attending and eventually contributing to client meetings and conversations, managing the follow up, and managing the plan. You will also be active in data gathering and analysis, development of financial planning recommendations, implementation, complex case research and resolution, trade preparation, reporting, and more, always ensuring a tailored and seamless client experience. This position offers a clear path to becoming a Lead Advisor, and when ready, you will graduate to manage a specific group of households and act as their primary point of contact.

You are a strong communicator, resourceful, detail-oriented, and have impeccable follow through.
