• Deliver tailored advice that prioritizes client interests and addresses individual financial circumstances
• Lead multi-partner coordination: identify client needs and proactively connect them with appropriate OneRBC partners (credit, banking, complex investments) rather than delivering all solutions independently
• Manage portfolio performance against targets while maintaining relationship quality metrics
• Leverage technology (video, screen sharing, advisor/client dashboards) to enhance client experience and operational efficiency
• Generate business opportunities through warm introductions to RBC partners and local market cultivation
• Contribute to team development by providing feedback, sharing learnings, and helping refine processes as the Team FP model evolves

• Mutual Funds License (IFIC or CSC)
• Licensed to serve clients in all provinces outside Quebec
• 2–3 years of proven sales and advice experience in financial services (particularly investments)

• Strong team collaboration and referral management skills
• Exceptional interpersonal skills; ability to build trust and nurture relationships
• Remote Office Employee capability (home office setup, time management, confidentiality compliance)
• Flexibility to work evenings and Saturdays
• Digital literacy across devices

What’s in it for you?We thrive on the challenge to be our best, progressive thinking to keep growing, and working together to deliver trusted advice to help our clients thrive and communities prosper. We care about each other, reaching our potential, making a difference to our communities, and achieving success that is mutual.
