If you like the idea of working for a private company with industry-leading benefits that values integrity, a strong work ethic and a history and culture of putting the needs and financial well-being of clients first, Fidelity represents a tremendous opportunity!

The primary aspect of the role is to support clients and advisors within a region of Fidelity Investor Centers and Regional Centers and engage in sales interactions to directly impact acquisition of outside assets.

Extensive use of Salesforce and technology to engage opportunities is central to the role.

Travel associated with regional coverage is estimated at 50% though each region's geography, size, Investor Centers and Regional Centers is unique.

The Expertise and Skills You Bring

  • A college degree is the minimum educational standard for applicants. While a business-related field is preferred, it is not required

Each supported Fidelity advisor maintains a book of roughly 400-500 households and thus relies on the RBC to add value to clients that express interest in individual securities especially when trading/investing with a competitor.
