Financial Advisor

Who we are

First Command was founded in 1958 by a retired military officer committed to helping service members and their families improve their financial well-being. We employ over 500 financial advisors, four out of five of whom are veterans or military spouses, dedicated to coaching those who serve toward financial security.

We are seeking a transitioning service member or veteran from the Marine Corps Base Quantico and The Basic School area to join our team as a Financial Advisor. This role offers a second career that allows you to stay connected to and give back to the military community.

Work strategically to engage with and serve the military community. Coach military families on steps they can take to gain control of their financial futures through holistic financial planning based on three cornerstones:

• Cash Management (cash flow and short-term savings goals)
• Investments (intermediate and long-term goals)
• Risk Management (protect your plan from the unexpected)

• Knowing and understanding the people they seek to serve.
• Possessing strong leadership and coaching skills.
• Having a genuine passion to serve.

• Internship programs – including DOD Skill Bridge – structured to facilitate a smooth transition to your next career.
• A specialized licensing and training program designed to prepare veterans and transitioning service members for building and growing a successful financial planning practice.
• The ability to control your career trajectory, including future management opportunities.
• A compensation model that enables you to align your pay with your contributions.

Investment and insurance products are not deposits, are not insured by the FDIC, and may lose value. A financial plan, by itself, cannot assure that retirement or other financial goals will be met.
