Business Development Associate

Overview:

Are you searching for a career that empowers you with the freedom of time, money, relationship, and purpose?

As a Business Development Associate with Financial Growth Partners, you can help people and businesses achieve their financial dreams and goals, while also pursuing things that you are passionate about. You'll have the opportunities to clients where they are today and help guide their decisions for a better tomorrow while obtaining a healthy work/life balance for yourself.

This may sound exciting and scary all at the same time. Don't worry- we don't expect you to know everything on day one. That's why you'll receive in-depth training and work with industry- experienced professionals until you're ready to be on your own.

We'd love to have you apply with FGP if you possess:

• A passion for helping others and making a positive impact in your community.
• An entrepreneurial spirit and desire to own a business that provides the ability to integrate your life and work – on your terms.
• A lifelong learner mentality with a desire to continue growing professionally.
• Self-motivation, a confident personality, high integrity, and a strong desire to succeed.

What you'll be doing:

• Working with clients to understand their goals, concerns, and current financial information.
• Analyzing information to create a strategy with appropriate products and services.
• Developing and maintaining a base of clients who value your input and guidance.
• Working with clients to keep their financial strategies current and aligned with their goals, building relationships with clients that will last for years.

What we provide:

• Tools and technology to help you appropriately gather, manage, and service your clients.
• Development and training—locally, virtually, and nationally—to support your educational needs.
• Tools and resources to help you market and grow your practice and communicate efficiently with your current and potential clients.
• Mentorship and joint-work opportunities.

health, and dental insurance and more.

• Leadership and career development opportunities including tuition reimbursement and continuing education opportunities.
• The Financial Growth Partners' and Guardian FR contract includes a draw; inexperienced FRs in their first four years earn $90K to $100K per year on average, including first year and renewal commissions; renewal commissions begin in year two.

Requirements:

• Must be a US citizen or permanent resident
• Must live in FGP's territory- DE, PA, MD, DC, VA

Our focus transcends long-term goals, as we prioritize addressing current pain points. We communicate with our clients using a "you" rather than "we" approach, employing storytelling instead of industry jargon.
