Job description

Financial advisors at Northwestern Mutual help clients reach their financial goals by developing and implementing financial plans to show clients where they are today, plan where they want to go tomorrow and provide the financial tools and support to help them get there. As you build your financial planning practice, you bring together the right insurance and investment strategies for clients to guide them every step of the way. Choose a career where changing someone else’s life for the better is also life-changing for you – personally, professionally, and financially.

Have you ever thought of running your own business, but you aren't sure how to get started? Our most successful advisors come from a variety of backgrounds (e.g. Pastor, Teacher, Engineer, Law Enforcement, Military Veterans) and have typically reached a ceiling in their previous career. They were looking for an opportunity where they can utilize their talents to make an impact and grow professionally, that's where Northwestern Mutual comes in. They possess an entrepreneurial spirit, heart of service, strong self-motivation, interpersonal and communication skills, and a high standard of ethics.

The advisor career with Northwestern Mutual allows one the opportunity to:

• Strive to understand their clients' goals and visions to develop holistic financial solutions that put their clients on a path to financial success using tools such as retirement planning, insurance and investment services, estate planning, business planning, education funding, and employee benefits. We also provide guidance on basic financial literacy to help our clients achieve financial security long term.
• Maintain autonomy and flexibility to build their own practice while receiving support from our firm’s exceptional network of financial specialists, fully paid training and educational programs, and mentoring opportunities. You are in business for yourself but not by yourself!
• Develop a career with NM that not only provides outstanding self-determined income potential, but more importantly provides the personal satisfaction of dramatically impacting the lives of others in a professional setting that values relationships and integrity.

Desired Skills and Experience:

BA or BS degree from a four-year institution preferred or at least 4 years of honorable military service. Candidate must be an accomplished communicator with strong verbal and written skills with the ability to build long-lasting relationships.

Must be located in Coastal Virginia or already planning to move here imminently
