About the Job

Are you an experienced Financial Planner ready to take the next step in your career? We're looking for technically strong, client-focused Financial Planners to help develop our growing team.

This is a hands-on role where you'll provide high-quality financial planning to clients of Raymond James.

In this role there is no requirement for a pre-existing client bank.

What You’ll Do

  • Deliver expert financial planning and wealth management advice to private clients.
  • Build and develop a client bank using external sources (solicitors, accountants etc.) and by developing new relationships both internally with Investment Managers, as well as through external referrals and personal contacts.
  • Mentor other team members, supporting complex cases and driving professional development.
  • Act as a technical resource and second opinion for planners across Raymond James.
  • Collaborate with stakeholders to ensure outstanding client outcomes.
  • Contribute to the development of advice standards and planning propositions.

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.
