Full Job Description
Business Development Advisor

Mission Woods, KS | Hybrid

An established and growing wealth management firm is seeking a Business Development Advisor to join a high-performing, collaborative team focused on serving affluent professionals and business owners. This is a salary based opportunity.

If you're currently at a larger firm where you feel like a number-or lack a clear path to meaningful growth-this role offers a more entrepreneurial environment with the infrastructure to support your success.

What You'll Do
  • Build and grow relationships with high-income professionals and business owners
  • Drive new business through consistent outreach, networking, and referrals
  • Take ownership of client relationships, with the opportunity to transition and manage existing clients over time
  • Lead conversations around investment strategies, retirement planning, and entity-level planning
  • Maintain a high level of activity:
    • ~20 client/prospect meetings per week
    • Follow a proven activity model
  • Partner with team members to deliver a high-quality, relationship-driven client experience
  • Stay disciplined and organized in managing pipeline, follow-ups, and client systems

What Makes This Opportunity Different
  • Team-Based, Not Siloed: You'll collaborate with experienced advisors and have access to mentorship and shared ideas-without sacrificing your independence
  • No Product Pressure: Focus on holistic planning-no rigid minimums, just goal-oriented planning that serves the client
  • Entrepreneurial Environment: Your activity and initiative directly drive your success-no corporate ceiling
  • Operational Leverage That Accelerates Growth: Once you earn the client's "yes," our established operations team steps in immediately-handling onboarding with a white-glove experience so you can stay focused on what you do best: building relationships and generating new business

What Success Looks Like
  • Consistent activity leading to steady AUM growth
  • Strong ability to build trust and convert opportunities into long-term relationships
  • High level of accountability, organization, and follow-through
  • Active participation in a team environment while building your individual practice

What We're Looking For
  • 5-7+ years of experience in wealth management or financial advising
  • Proven track record of business development and client acquisition
    • Ability to speak to annual AUM growth and new assets brought in
  • Strong investment knowledge (more critical than insurance experience)
  • Experience working with affluent clients, business owners, or professionals
  • Highly motivated, activity-driven, and organized
  • Desire to grow within a team environment that still rewards individual ownership

Licensing
  • SIE, Series 7, and Series 63 (required or ability to obtain)

Ideal Candidate Profile
  • Coming from a larger firm and looking for more control, visibility, and impact
  • Wants to be part of a team culture, but still build something of their own
  • Values relationships, trust, and long-term client success
  • Coachable, driven, and excited about growth
