William Highbourne Wealth Management is a Chartered wealth management firm in East Devon, and I am running a retained search on their behalf for an employed Financial Adviser to take on an established book of existing clients from day one. No self generation required.
This is the seat most advisers say they want and rarely get: a bank of long standing relationships handed over in good order, a firm that removes the paperwork so you can advise, and a pay structure that rewards you from the first pound rather than after a hurdle.
What you walk into
- An established book of existing clients, handed over in full, with a structured twelve month plan to meet every household.
- New enquiries come to you from the firm's own marketing, so your job is to advise and build relationships, not to prospect.
- Administration and paraplanning support is being built around the adviser team so that report writing and processing sit away from your desk.
- You will work with two principals who are hands on, technically strong, and Chartered, in a firm built on trust with its clients.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
