About the Role

A highly respected, successful IFA practice in North Wales has been acquired by a leading regional firm. They are looking for an adviser to join them to take over an existing portfolio of HNW clients.

Responsibilities

  • Portfolio reviews with existing clients.
  • Working with the business owner to transition clients across.
  • Identifying other needs for clients, as well as any referrals possible.
  • Maintaining up-to-date and compliant client files in conjunction with the technical team.
  • Keeping up-to-date CPD.
  • Actively seeking out new client opportunities as required.

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.
