• Mentors are Partners who have grown their own seven figure portfolios and have a vested interest in seeing you succeed. They help you learn the business, your clientele and a range of strategies to add value to them.

• You will learn your clients' businesses and work to explore and uncover key problems and challenges, whilst educating them on how the company's solutions can solve them.
• You will work closely with analysts and strategists to build and present valuable risk management solutions to clients - in time learning how to develop these solutions yourself.
• You will develop trusted relationships with your existing portfolio of clients to retain their business and grow your portfolio.
• In time, you will learn how to deal independently for your portfolio of clients on the largest traded market in the world.
