Who We AreWe're a growing $470M+ AUM financial planning firm headquartered in Exeter, CA, serving the backbone of America-the hard-working families we're proud to call clients.
Our purpose is to obsessively serve our team and clients so they feel known, valued, and loved. That's not a tagline. It's how we operate.
What that means in practice: - No chaos. No egos. No one left without support.
- Cross-trained teams so your teammates can fully unplug when they're off.
- Clear expectations, consistent feedback, and leadership that's in it with you.
The RolesWe're hiring across multiple levels within our centralized operations team. You'll support a group of financial advisors, and your specific responsibilities will match your experience. Here's what each level looks like:
CSA (Entry-Level) - $50,000-$65,000You're early in your financial services career but you're hungry to learn, detail-oriented by nature, and ready to be part of something that's growing. You'll handle foundational service work while building toward full ownership of client service processes.
- Process cashiering requests, account maintenance, and paperwork with accuracy
- Learn custodian and vendor platforms with structured training and mentorship
- Support senior team members on complex cases while developing your own skills
- Communicate clearly with advisors, vendors, and custodians
- Work toward licensing (Series 7, 66) with firm support
What you bring: 1-2 years in financial services (or equivalent administrative experience), a willingness to get licensed, strong attention to detail, and a team-first mindset. Series 7 preferred but not required-we'll help you get there.
Mid-Level CSA - $65,000-$85,000You've been doing this work and you're good at it. You can run a service ticket start to finish, you know what NIGO means (and you hate it), and you're ready for a firm that matches your standards.
- Own the full lifecycle of service tickets: new accounts, transfers, trades, cashiering, and account maintenance
- Work across multiple custodians and vendor platforms with confidence
- Initiate 95% of assigned service tickets within 24 hours
- Complete 95% of tickets without a NIGO
- Contribute to weekly team meetings and help strengthen systems

Senior CSA - $85,000-$110,000You're the person people go to when things get complicated. You don't wait to be told when something's off-you see it, fix it, and speak into how to improve the process going forward. You're ready for a seat at the table to help shape operations as we grow.
- Everything in the mid-level role, plus full ownership of complex cases: death claims, bulk transfers, and escalations
- Mentor and cross-train junior team members
- Identify process gaps and lead improvements across the operations team
- Serve as a go-to resource for advisors on complex service questions
- Help shape the future of our growing operations team
What you bring: Active Series 7 license (Series 66 or 63/65 strongly preferred, Series 24 a plus), 5+ years of mid-to-senior level experience across multiple custodians and vendor platforms, and the ability to elevate the team around you.
