Service Advisor – Strickler Financial Group

Brighton & Livonia, MI

Are you ready to be part of something bigger?

At Strickler Financial Group (SFG), we're not just another financial planning firm—we're on a mission to help families Retire Boldly. We're growing fast, expanding our footprint, and building a team that is as real, approachable, and committed as the clients we serve.

If you're early in your career and want to grow in an environment that challenges you, supports you, and rewards you—you might have just found the place you've been looking for.

Why Strickler Financial Group?

Most entry-level financial advisor opportunities are the same—you're expected to start by selling to your friends and family, juggling paperwork, and figuring it all out on your own. And often, you're thrown into a commission-only role with the stress of having to produce just to get paid.

That's not how we do things at SFG. Here, you'll earn a salary while being developed into a talented financial advisor, learning directly from experienced mentors and growing in a supportive environment. No need to add the stress of being a commission-based salesperson on top of everything else—we want you focused on learning, serving families, and growing into the advisor you're meant to be.

Here's why we stand out:

· No cold calling or prospecting your friends and family. Our marketing engine fills the pipeline so you can focus on building relationships.

· No endless paperwork. We have a client service team that handles applications, forms, and processing.

· No calendar chaos. Your scheduling is managed for you, so your time is spent where it matters most.

· Cutting-edge tools. You'll be equipped with the latest technology for retirement planning, tax planning, estate planning, and investment management. On top of that, we provide access to artificial intelligence tools that streamline workflows, enhance client communication, and make our advisors more efficient and effective.

What You'll Do

· Partner with our Lead Advisors to onboard new clients and guide families through their retirement journey.

· Build lasting relationships by being the primary point of contact once clients are onboarded.

· Deliver planning advice in areas like investments, insurance, retirement income, tax strategies, and more (we'll teach you what you don't know).

· Coordinate with specialists in tax, estate, and healthcare planning to provide holistic solutions.

· Support client events and marketing efforts, including welcoming guests and introducing presenters.

· Continuously learn, sharpen your skills, and grow into the advisor you aspire to be.

What We're Looking For

This isn't just a job—it's a calling for the right person. The right candidate is:

· Real – You're genuine, authentic, and not afraid to be yourself.

· Approachable – People feel comfortable opening up to you, because you listen and care.

· Committed – You take ownership, follow through, and bring energy to everything you do.

Other must-haves:

· 0–4 years of experience in financial services or a related field (we'll train the right fit).

· Series 65 and Life & Health licenses (or ability to obtain quickly).

· A positive attitude, empathy, and a hunger to learn.

· Strong organizational and communication skills.

· Willingness to pursue the CFP designation. All candidates will be required to obtain their Certified Financial Planner designation by the end of Year 3. SFG covers all costs for coursework, exam fees, and study materials.

What's In It for You

· Base Salary: $45,000 – $60,000 depending on experience.

· Bonuses: Performance-based bonuses tied to retention, new assets, and referrals.

· Benefits: 4 weeks paid time off, health/dental/vision (2/3 premium covered), 401k with employer contribution.

A Final Word

This isn't the right fit if you're looking to coast. At SFG, we push ourselves, hold each other accountable, and strive for excellence. But if you're someone who's excited by growth, motivated to serve families, and eager to be part of a team that's building something truly special—you'll thrive here.
