In this role, you’ll work alongside internal teams responsible for market strategy and opportunity sourcing, taking ownership of high-potential opportunities and driving them through structuring, negotiation, and successful execution.

• Lead onboarding and integration of partner firms into the Advisors Support Network
• Build and maintain trusted relationships with founders, owners, and leadership teams
• Act as the central connection point between partner firms and internal resources

Strategic Advisory & Business Coaching

• Serve as a strategic advisor to partner firms, providing guidance on growth, performance, and operational effectiveness
• Coach advisor offices on key business drivers including client growth, recruiting, operational scale, M&A, and succession planning
• Identify opportunities to improve profitability, efficiency, and enterprise value
• Connect partner firms with internal resources such as finance, compliance, operations, and investment solutions
• Support the development and execution of long-term strategic plans

Experience you’ll bring:

• Proven experience leading transaction execution, including structuring, negotiating, and closing deals
• Strong financial acumen, including valuation, financial modeling, and deal analysis
• Experience working directly with founders, entrepreneurs, or executive leadership teams
• Ability to operate effectively as both a transaction leader and a long-term strategic advisor
• Strong understanding of the independent wealth management industry, including RIAs, hybrid firms, independent broker-dealers, custodians, and advisor platforms

Bonus Points:
