Wealth Management Consultant

The Wealth Management Consultant is a financial advisor in-training role, part of our exclusive Advisor Development Program.

We are looking for candidates with strong work ethics, solid work experience and proven results.

The Advisor Development Program starts with a robust, 24-week training curriculum, helping the Wealth Management Consultant develop a strong financial planning foundation, learn and practice sales skills techniques to attract clients, observe customer/prospect meetings and receive extensive coaching and support from field leadership.

Upon successful completion of the training and proficiency components of the program, the Wealth Management Consultant will enter into a “practice production” phase, gaining even more experience meeting with customers/prospects, soliciting business and serving them independently.

They will be required to set meetings with existing customers/prospects, conduct meetings to help them determine their financial goals and objectives, perform due diligence into each customer/prospect’s financial situation and recommend solutions that meet the customer/prospect’s particular financial goals, risk tolerance and tax exposure.

This role will advise customers/prospects, using U.S.

Bancorp Investment’s products and services where appropriate, to deliver economic and market views, investment strategy, manager/fund/security research and due diligence, resulting in tailored advisory services for each customer/prospect’s unique situation.

Once the “practice production” phase has been successfully demonstrated, the Wealth Management Consultant will become a financial advisor with a specific focus on helping clients achieve their goals through a financial planning relationship.

At this time, the Wealth Management Consultant will continue to receive a highly competitive salary plus uncapped quarterly bonuses based on sales results.
