Independent Financial Advisor
Description
Jerroms Financial Planning, part of the Sumer Group, is a well\-established and growing directly authorised Independent Financial Advisory firm, managing more than £250 million of client assets and providing high\-quality financial planning advice to individuals, families, business owners and SMEs.
We work closely with five Jerroms accountancy offices across the Midlands and a broader network of Sumer’s accounting firms throughout the UK.
These established professional relationships will provide you with regular client introductions and the opportunity to build long\-term, trusted relationships with business owners, company directors and their families.
Our advisers benefit from a strong investment proposition, modern financial planning technology and experienced support from advisers, paraplanners and administrators. They also work alongside specialist departments across accountancy, tax, corporate finance, wills and estate planning, helping to ensure clients receive truly holistic advice.### The Role
We are looking for an ambitious and relationship\-focused individual who wants to build a successful long\-term career as an Independent Financial Adviser.
You may be an established adviser looking for greater independence, professional autonomy and the right long\-term environment in which to build a fulfilling career, an adviser with experience of working directly with clients who has not yet achieved Competent Adviser Status, or an experienced paraplanner looking to move into advice.
Whether you are Chartered or Diploma qualified, what matters most to us is your professionalism, integrity, ability to build trust and commitment to delivering excellent long\-term outcomes for clients.
Alongside building your own client bank, you will have the opportunity to take responsibility for existing client relationships, helping you to establish yourself and build momentum within the role.
You will be given the support and autonomy to develop trusted relationships with clients and professional colleagues while taking genuine ownership of your career.
We are looking for someone with the ambition and drive to make the most of the opportunities available and contribute to the continued growth of Jerroms Financial Planning.
Experience of advising clients is desirable, but existing Competent Adviser Status is not essential. Where further development is required, we will provide structured mentoring, supervision and support while expecting you to demonstrate the commitment required to progress.
For those developing into a full advisory role, we will work closely with you during your first six months to build on your experience, strengthen your advisory skills and establish relationships across the wider business.
What we can offer:* A structured development pathway with mentoring and support at every stage.
- Access to the strength and reputation of the Sumer Group and its established introducer network.
- The opportunity to build long\-term relationships with accountancy firms and their clients.
- Genuine career progression within a business that believes in developing talent from within.
- The opportunity to shape your own career, client bank, and earning potential as you become established.
- Diploma in Financial Planning at Level 4 as a minimum with a willingness to work towards Chartered status.
- Experience of advising clients or working within a client\-facing financial planning role.
- Existing Competent Adviser Status is welcomed but is not essential.
- Strong interpersonal and relationship\-building skills, with the ability to earn the trust of clients and professional colleagues.
- Excellent communication and presentation skills.
- A high\-integrity, values\-led approach, with a genuine commitment to independent, client\-focused advice rather than a product or sales\-driven approach.
- The ability to understand clients, their businesses and their wider financial objectives.
- The ambition and drive to make the most of the opportunities available and build trusted long\-term relationships.
- A proactive approach, commercial awareness and a willingness to take ownership of client relationships and your own development.
- Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities effectively.
- High levels of professionalism and attention to detail.
- The ability to work independently while collaborating effectively as part of a wider professional team.
