Are you an experienced Financial Planning Manager looking for your next career move in a fast-growing wealth management firm?

We're recruiting for an ambitious and results-driven Financial Planning Manager to join a dynamic and expanding wealth management business. This Financial Planning Manager job offers the opportunity to lead, develop, and commercially drive a team of approximately 20 financial advisors (both employed and self-employed) across your region.

As Financial Planning Manager, you'll be responsible for:

  • Leading and coaching advisors to achieve their business plans and commercial targets

  • Having regular advisor-facing meetings, conducting observations, and attending client meetings
  • Managing day-to-day training and competence (T&C) responsibilities
  • Driving commercial growth whilst maintaining compliance standards

This is more than just a T&C management role. Our client wants a Financial Planning Manager who can motivate, push commercial drivers, and help advisors grow their businesses.

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.
