Uncapped Commission | Significant Long-Term Earning Potential

This is not a traditional Financial Advisor role.
If you are successful in wealth management, strong at winning new clients and confident in your ability to sell — but feel you have reached a ceiling in the traditional bank or wealth-management model — this opportunity is worth exploring.

Our client is a highly established global investment-management organization with a unique business model and a rapidly growing Canadian presence.

The opportunity is designed for high-performing financial professionals who want to focus on what they do best:  business development, client acquisition and closing new relationships.

You will  not  be responsible for managing client portfolios after onboarding.

You will  not  spend your days servicing an existing book.

You will  not  be cold calling.

Instead, you will work with a continuous flow of qualified prospective clients who have already expressed interest in the firm's investment-management offering.

Your role is to understand their financial situation, establish credibility, articulate the firm's value proposition and convert qualified prospects into clients.

Once the relationship is established, the client is transitioned to a dedicated portfolio and relationship-management team. You are paid our your commissions and move on to the next opportunity.

Why successful advisers make the move
Many professionals joining this organization come from traditional Financial Advisor, Wealth Advisor, Investment Advisor or Associate Portfolio Manager environments.

They are already successful.

What they are looking for is  more upside, more focus and fewer limitations on what they can earn. They are tired of waiting to inherit a promised portfolio.

This Environment Can Be Particularly Compelling For Someone Who

Loves the business-development side of wealth management

Is highly confident speaking with sophisticated investors

Enjoys presenting, influencing and closing

Does not want to manage client assets through every market rise and decline

Wants a fully remote career with a structured, professional workday

Is motivated by performance and does not want compensation capped at a few hundred thousand dollars

Has the drive and confidence to pursue substantially higher income based on results

Top performers within the organization can build exceptionally lucrative careers, with some reaching seven-figure annual compensation.

This is NOT a role for someone looking for a comfortable salary and predictable bonus.

It is for someone who is  hungry, competitive, self-motivated and genuinely excited by the opportunity to be paid at a very high level for producing results.

What You Will Do

Work with a consistent pipeline of warm, qualified prospective clients

Conduct discovery conversations and understand investors' financial goals, current portfolios and concerns

Present the firm's investment philosophy, services and value proposition

Build trust with high-net-worth prospective clients

Lead virtual and telephone-based sales conversations

Convert qualified prospects into new clients

Transition new clients to the dedicated relationship and portfolio-management teams

Maintain disciplined follow-up throughout the sales process

Focus your time almost exclusively on new business development and closing

The Non-Negotiable Requirement – IIROC / Investment Dealer Experience
Candidates  must have accumulated a minimum of 24 months of registration as an Investment Dealer representative under IIROC/CIRO during their career.

The 24 Months

Can be current or previous registration

Can be accumulated across more than one employer

Does not need to be consecutive

However,  mutual-fund registration alone does not qualify.

You must have worked within the Investment Dealer channel and have been appropriately registered to sell, recommend or provide advice regarding securities, or have worked in a qualifying capacity alongside portfolio-management/investment activities requiring Investment Dealer registration (IIROC).

If your experience has only been through a mutual-fund dealer, this opportunity will unfortunately not meet the regulatory requirements of the role.

Additional Requirements

Minimum 24 months combined IIROC/CIRO Investment Dealer registration

5+ years of financial-services, investment, wealth-management or securities…
