Highly motivated individuals can join Edward Jones as Financial Advisors, controlling their career and compensation. In this role, you will work independently from your own neighborhood office helping clients to achieve their long-term financial goals.

Individuals from a variety of occupational backgrounds including sales people, I.T. professionals, military veterans and corporate managers have found new success at Edward Jones. By becoming an Edward Jones Financial Advisor, you can run your business, determine your compensation, and redefine your future.



We take a personal approach to business that starts with a face-to-face meeting between a Financial Advisor and an individual investor. As we continue to grow in the United States, and in our Canadian and United Kingdom affiliates, we are looking for individuals who are self-managers, sales-oriented and highly driven.

What leads to success as a Financial Advisor?

Edward Jones believes in doing business the old fashioned way, face to face. When starting out, our Financial Advisors spend most of their time in the communities they serve, making face-to-face contacts in neighborhoods and with businesses, introducing themselves and Edward Jones. They spend time getting to know their clients, their investment needs and their objectives. Then they deliver the appropriate investments and services on an individual and personal basis. A strong sales and/or management background compliments the Edward Jones business model. We frequently find that individuals with a solid sales or management history thrive as Financial Advisors because they understand the commitment and relationship building skills that are crucial to establishing long-term clients.



As an Edward Jones Financial Advisor you will:

• Work autonomously from your own neighborhood office while being supported by an international financial services leader


• Build your business by identifying and cultivating prospective clients


• Help clients to determine financial and investment needs, and utilize sales skills to effectively recommend suitable financial products


• Be trained in financial products to suit a variety of objectives and risk levels


• Enjoy early financial support. We know that building a business takes time. For this reason, you’ll have a compensation package during your first two years including training pay that takes into account your experience and geographic location. You'll also have opportunities to earn new account bonuses and milestone bonuses based on your production while you build your client base.
  
   

Secure your future:

• Earn commissions, bonuses, and incentive travel based on your production


• Receive world-class financial and business development training


• Apply a proven business model


• Have a full-time branch office assistant who manages client service and marketing activities


• Participate in profit sharing


• Have the opportunity to become a partner in the firm


• Work for the company FORTUNE magazine ranked No. 4 on its list of the “Best Companies to Work For” in America.
