About this Job

Overview

YFP seeks a Lead Planner to manage current & new clients. The Lead Planner is the senior member of a financial planning team, working under the direction of the Director of Financial Planning. Other details about this position include:

  • W-2 position
  • Hours: 40-45 hours per week
  • Direct Reports: 1 - 2 (changes as the number of clients increases)
  • Reports to: Director of Financial Planning
  • Location: Virtual
  • Start Date: TBD 

Responsibilities

Your core task is to build & nurture the client relationship by leading the financial planning process and to delegate the following work to your support team, as necessary:

  • Gather, analyze & evaluate client information 
  • Prepare client presentations: 1) Create & model different possible financial scenarios and 2) Develop & communicate recommendations
  • Answer client questions & concerns 
  • Follow up & assist clients with plan implementation
  • Monitor the plan & make changes over time


Other tasks:

  • Lead & develop your support team including a Financial Planner and Client Service Associate
  • Document client meetings & update CRM, as necessary
  • Act as a liaison to internal & external stakeholders on behalf of the client (i.e., YFP Tax, a sister company of YFP, handles our client tax planning and preparation needs, so effective communication with the tax team is vital)
  • Make proactive use of technology to streamline client interactions
  • Support the firm’s initiatives, assist with any company-wide projects or activities & attend functions, as needed
  • Understand key company metrics & help drive results


Requirements:

  • Candidates must have the CFP® designation

  • EA and CSLP designations preferred
  • Comfortable leading a small team

  • Exceptional organizational, communication & presentation skills
  • Comfortable with technology: Google Suite (Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides); iOS; Right Capital; WealthBox CRM


Why is this lead planner role different?  

  • No required sales or marketing!! You’ll engage in very little marketing (prospecting) OR sales activities, which typically takes ⅓ or more of a planner’s time. As a result (and as stated previously), your core task will be to serve the clients' best interests, providing outstanding financial advice.
  • Support: a dedicated team that provides support to you & the client relationship & active mentorship for your continued development
  • Geographically independent (thank you, interwebs!)
  • Casual dress code


Compensation 

  • Competitive salary based on experience
  • 401k/Roth 401k with Safe harbor match
