They lead proactive sales initiatives and coordinate across the broader Broker Dealer channel to deepen Dimensional's footprint within a designated territory.
To be successful, the Regional Director must have a strong knowledge of investments, capital markets and asset allocation theory. The ability to discuss the sophisticated investment solutions that Dimensional provides is critical to working with and influencing Advisors. Just as important, the Regional Director must have a solid business development and client service orientation and understand the issues and setbacks Advisors face in building a client-centric, fee-based business.

Day to Day and Responsibilities:
Drive strategic sales and territory management across a book of business primarily composed of Wirehouse-affiliated Financial Advisors (FAs).

- In-person territory management: You will travel extensively across your assigned region to prioritize face-to-face meetings over virtual communication.

An existing "rolodex" of high-production, fee-based FAs who prioritize fiduciary-aligned portfolio construction.
An entrepreneurial "self-starter" mindset with the high energy required to manage a high-travel, high-activity territory.
Exceptional ability to translate complex factor-based investing and capital markets theory into clear, persuasive narratives for sophisticated advisor teams.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, particularly with regards to conveying technical investment approaches and key Dimensional selling points in a clear and compelling manner.
