  • Operate with full back-office and regulatory support from the owning network.

  • Influence the commercial model—adjusting the fee structure could generate £350K+ in additional revenue.

  • Significant potential to earn equity in the business and be part of a larger wealth platform’s growth strategy.

Ideal Candidate

  • Chartered Financial Planner (or close to achieving), CAS and SPS qualified.

  • Proven track record of regulated advice and managing a client bank independently.

  • Experience running or growing an IFA business is advantageous.

  • Confident, self-driven, and passionate about long-term client relationships.

  • Ideally available to start within 1–2 months is advantageous (not essential)

What’s On Offer

  • £60K–£70K base salary + bonus tied to revenue and growth

  • Clear equity pathway with long-term upside

  • Hybrid/flexible working model
