Financial Adviser to Take Over from MD – Succession Opportunity + Equity
Salary £80k – £90k + Bonus and Benefits + Equity
Location: London
Are you a Financial Adviser looking to step away from KPI-driven targets and an aggressive sales-led environment?
Are you looking for a role where you are not tied to a desk or constant product focus, and instead can concentrate on building long-term relationships with high-quality HNW/UHNW clients?
This is a genuinely rare opportunity for a Financial Adviser to work within a boutique wealth management firm based in the City, who are offering a clear long-term succession pathway, equity in the business, and the opportunity to take over an established client base and ultimately run the business over time.
This is a relationship-led environment with a high-quality client base made up predominantly of City professionals (bankers, lawyers, accountants), with a strong focus on long-term financial planning and intergenerational wealth.
- Work directly alongside the Managing Director, building deep client relationships, driving planning conversations, and being fully embedded in the client journey rather than operating in a constrained or production-led environment.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
