Job Description

Employed Financial Adviser - Trainee/Junior
Manchester

£30k-£40k base + bonuses Flexible working Leads provided

This is the kind of role that gives you the best of both worlds: the stability of an employed contract plus training and the upside of serious bonus potential. Previous joiners are already hitting six-figure earnings.

Whether you're a Paraplanner, Banker, Associate Adviser or someone who's already advising - if you've got your Level 4, this firm will back you to build a successful career.

What you'll get:
  • £30k-£40k base salary depending on experience
  • Leads provided (12-16 per month) so you're not starting from scratch
  • Just 1-2 self-generated leads per month expected
  • Bonus structure that scales fast:
    • 40% over £65k initial
    • 50% over £85k initial
    • 60% over £100k initial
  • Hybrid working - no office requirement if you're out with clients
  • Academy training + mentoring to sharpen your skills and get you to the next level
  • A genuine career path (including routes into self-employed if you want it later)

What the role looks like:

You'll be building client relationships, delivering tailored advice, and helping people plan across pensions, investments, protection, and more.

The firm will give you the platform, support, and leads to succeed - but you'll also bring your own entrepreneurial spark to keep growing.

What we're looking for:
  • Level 4 qualified (essential - CII/CISI)
  • Some experience in advice, paraplanning, sales, banking or business development
  • Confident communicator who can build trust quickly
  • Self-starter who wants to push their career forward
If you want a role that gives you stability, support, and the chance to scale into six-figures, this could be it. Let's have a confidential chat.
