ABOUT THE COMPANY
You’ll be joining a highly regarded Australian wealth management and stockbroking firm with a long history of helping private clients build and protect their wealth. The firm is known for high calibre advisers, a collaborative culture and real investment in its people. It is growing its adviser numbers and gives talented paraplanners a real path into private wealth. Staff value the strong brand, the sophisticated client base and the chance to learn from some of the most experienced advisers in the industry.
ABOUT THE ROLE
Reporting to the Strategic Advice Lead, you'll join a small, experienced strategic advice team based in offices around Australia. The role goes beyond standard paraplanning.
You'll produce high quality SOAs, and you'll also work with advisers on client strategy, research technical issues and help shape the advice given to high net worth clients. It's an excellent stepping stone into private wealth: the person who held this role before you is moving into the private wealth team.
DUTIES
At Lotus People, we are committed to fostering diversity, equity and inclusion. We encourage applicants from all backgrounds to apply and will ensure a fair and equitable recruitment process.
Every application we receive is reviewed by a real person, never by AI. If your experience aligns with the requirements of the role, a consultant will be in touch within 2-3 business days for an initial phone screen. Shortlisted candidates will then proceed to a virtual interview with the consultant managing the role.
Due to the volume of applications and the specific nature of our briefs, we are unable to take phone enquiries about roles before an application is submitted. We ask that all interested candidates please apply online and wait to hear from us. Rest assured, we respond to every applicant, regardless of the outcome, so you will not be left wondering.
Lotus People are proud to have been awarded Best Agency for Candidate Experience for five consecutive years.
We look forward to providing you with a positive and respectful experience.
