Senior IFA

You loved what you do, now work isn’t the same.

As an IFA/Financial Planner you give the right advice to HNWI and their families, through tailored support that meets their unique circumstances and goals.

You enjoy sales because it enhances your clients’ lives, not just because it adds to the bottom line.

But things have changed and now you find yourself in a structure that puts profit first, constraining your work through transactional KPIs. Or perhaps you’ve reached a glass ceiling, and career progression isn’t on the table.

For you to think about a move, it would have to be with a company that shares your priority of putting clients first, while being bold enough to scale and evolve in the right way.

You’ll be taking over as Head of IFA Sales from their CEO, freeing him to work on strategy. He’ll trust you to share his values around excellence, trust, family and listening, building towards their growth plans.

And where you don’t have to do the legwork, fully supported by a professional team who’ll get the job done. They’ve been judged a top 1% UK wealth management firm by FT Advisor through their independent research, with funds under management of around £250m.

As you embed in the business in this senior, autonomous role you’ll have the opportunity to grow your sales team.

An impactful career opportunity, for you and the business, where you’ll be a key part of their future.

I can give you full insight into the role, culture, and context before confirming your interest. Any conversation we have will be fully confidential.
