Job description

Company Overview

CORDA Investment Management, LLC is a client-centered wealth management firm serving high-net-worth individuals and families. We bring together investment management, financial planning, tax strategy, and estate planning in one integrated, proactive approach.

Registered with the SEC under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, CORDA upholds the highest standards of integrity and fiduciary responsibility.

At CORDA, our team shares a common purpose: helping clients navigate complexity, build confidence in their financial future, and leave a meaningful legacy. We are a close-knit, collaborative team. We support each other and welcome new ideas, while staying focused on the clients we serve. If our work resonates with you, we’d love to connect!

Senior Financial Advisor

Are you ready for independence without starting from scratch? If you have spent years building client relationships at a broker-dealer and are ready for more freedom, more alignment, and more ownership over the way you serve your clients, CORDA may be exactly what you have been looking for.

Joining CORDA means stepping into an established, fiduciary-first RIA with the infrastructure, technology, and team already in place. You bring the relationships and the drive. We bring everything else.

A different kind of independence.

This is not a solo practice model or a platform where you operate independently under a shared umbrella. At CORDA, you become part of a cohesive, collaborative team working toward shared goals and serving clients together. The independence we offer is freedom from the conflicts, quotas, and bureaucracy. Not freedom from the team.

If you are looking for a place to plug in, grow alongside talented colleagues, and serve clients within a close-knit firm that operates with intention, that is exactly what CORDA offers.

What Independence At CORDA Looks Like

• Turnkey infrastructure from day one. Integrated CRM, billing, reporting, and financial planning technology ready to go. No months spent negotiating custodian contracts or vetting software vendors.
• Compliance handled. Our Chief Compliance Officer manages SEC regulatory filings, audits, ADV maintenance, and E&O insurance coverage. You focus on clients, not paperwork.
• A team behind you. Access to client service, operations, financial planning, and advanced tax strategy support so you can spend your time on what matters most: client relationships and growth.
• Shared overhead, not solo costs. Institutional software pricing, shared staff, and existing office infrastructure mean you get the economics of scale without the capital outlay of building your own firm.
• A transition playbook. We have a dedicated process to help move client accounts efficiently, minimize downtime, and get you generating revenue as quickly as possible.
• Long‑term alignment. As a fiduciary firm, we are structurally aligned with your clients' interests and yours. No product quotas. No conflicted incentives.

What we are looking for

We are not looking for someone who is just getting started. We are looking for an experienced financial advisor who has built a book of business, values the fiduciary standard, and is ready to make a move that sets them up for the next chapter of their career.

Just as important as experience is mindset. At CORDA, everyone is working toward the same thing: growing the firm, deepening client relationships, and doing it the right way. We are looking for someone who shares that energy, a team player who is energized by collaboration, aligned on values, and genuinely excited to be part of something bigger than a solo practice.

Ideal candidates bring:

• Series 65 or Series 7 and Series 66 licensure
• An established client base and track record of relationship‑driven growth
• A fiduciary mindset and genuine passion for client outcomes
• A collaborative spirit and interest in being part of a high‑performing team
