Job description

WealthBridge Financial Group is seeking driven, results-oriented career changers in Phoenix Metro to join our Phoenix Metro team of financial advisors. In this position, you will engage with families, business owners, and professionals to understand their financial objectives and provide tailored advice and strategies across the 7 planning areas - protection, savings, tax strategy, retirement income, debt management, estate planning, and education funding. No prior financial-services experience is required: we provide pre-licensing guidance, a 4-week joint-field training program, and a defined career path from Associate through Managing Director. As a Financial Advisor at WealthBridge, you will play a pivotal role in empowering Phoenix Metro clients to make informed financial decisions - implementing life insurance, annuities, disability coverage, advisory accounts, and retirement plans while building a book of business you own from day one. You will utilize advanced planning tools and analytics to assess client needs, supported by our specialist network - Advanced Markets, Premium Finance, ESI Illuminations (FMAX/Fidelity), and Planning & Design. The New Associate Program pairs consistent daily activity with weekly accountability and quality metrics (persistency, suitability); specific production expectations are reviewed during Discovery and formalized at contracting. Join WealthBridge Financial Group and be part of a passionate team building across Phoenix Metro. If you are driven by results and ready to control your income and build something you own, we would love to hear from you. Compensation and classification: This is a commission-based, uncapped 1099 independent-contractor opportunity - you own your business on WealthBridge's platform, with no base salary or employer-provided benefits. WealthBridge's firm-wide good-faith earnings estimate for first-year new associates is $80,000 to $115,000 per year - an earnings estimate for commission production, not a salary; new advisors typically begin in the lower portion of the range during the licensing and ramp period (commonly months 1-12) and scale as activity, persistency, and book development compound. Industry reference: BLS OEWS May 2024, SOC 13-2052 (Personal Financial Advisors, including commissions and bonuses) - median $102,140; 75th percentile $172,540; 90th percentile top-coded at $239,200 or above.
