About:
Are you a client-focused financial services professional who takes pride in delivering exceptional service and building lasting relationships? We are seeking a dependable, personable, and detail-oriented Client Associate to support a team of four Financial Advisors in its office. In this role, you will play an essential part in keeping daily operations running smoothly while providing high-quality support to approximately 100 clients.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys the financial services industry, values teamwork, and wants to build a long-term career in a stable, supportive client service role rather than pursue a Financial Advisor track.

- Provide professional telephone support, respond to client inquiries, and deliver an exceptional client experience
- Process annuity and insurance payments while ensuring accuracy and timely completion of account transactions
- Assist with client communications, periodic mailings, and maintaining strong relationships between clients and advisors
- Keep advisors informed of important client account activity and transaction updates while helping ensure smooth daily operations
Requirements:
- 3–5+ years of financial services experience, ideally in a Client Associate, Client Service Associate, or similar support role
- Active Series 7 and Series 65 licenses highly preferred, with consideration for exceptional candidates who have relevant industry experience and are willing to obtain licensing
- Strong customer service and communication skills with the ability to build rapport and confidently interact with clients over the phone
- Intermediate Microsoft Excel skills and strong attention to detail
- Ability to work independently, follow established processes, and collaborate effectively within a team environment
- A dependable, long-term mindset with a genuine interest in remaining in a client support and service-focused position
- Ability to successfully pass required FINRA background screening and credit checks, with no disqualifying licensing issues
Benefits:
- Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, and 401(k) benefits
- Annual firm performance bonus
- Licensing bonus for obtaining required registrations within the designated timeframe, along with an increase in salary band and title
- Generous paid time off, including up to 20 days annually based on tenure, plus 83 hours of sick time
- 10 paid company holidays and a supportive, stable work environment that prioritizes work-life balance
