Job description

This Employed Financial Advisor job in Durham offers an excellent opportunity for an individual early in their advisory career who wants the rare combination of inheriting an existing client bank whilst having the support, resources and capacity to grow the portfolio.

From day one, you'll take responsibility for an established portfolio of pension and investment clients, allowing you to focus on delivering quality financial planning rather than having to build a client bank entirely from scratch.

• Providing holistic financial planning advice to an existing client portfolio
• Conducting ongoing reviews across pensions, investments and retirement planning
• Identifying opportunities to strengthen and expand existing client relationships
• Building your portfolio through referrals and organic growth
• Working collaboratively with in house paraplanning and administration support
• Supporting clients with more complex planning needs, including international and cross border considerations where appropriate

Financial Advisor Requirements

• Level 4 Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning, DipPFS, DipFA or equivalent
• Have some experience providing financial advice to clients
• Desire to grow your career as a Financial Adviser
