Requisition ID : 228306

Join a purpose driven winning team, committed to results, in an inclusive and high-performing culture.

To ensure that our purpose is front and centre in all we do, we have refreshed our name to Financial Planners under the Scotia Financial Planning team (formerly known as “Investment Specialist” under the Mobile Advice Team) within our Global Asset Management Division.

As a Financial Planner, you will focus on developing and deepening client relationships by providing high quality advice and service within the mass affluent market. As a dedicated entrepreneur, you know how to leverage your external networks and centres of influence and understand that growing a practice is all about building new and long-term relationships. Most importantly, you realize that your clients are your greatest asset, and your priority is providing investment and financial planning advice to help them meet their unique goals.

You also enjoy the flexibility of being able to meet clients outside of the office, on a schedule that best suits you and them. Finally, you recognize the value of working within a collective Scotiabank framework that benefits both your clients and your practice overall.

Following a comprehensive financial planning framework, you will be responsible for driving investment sales and new client acquisition, while adhering to Global Sales Principles, compliance and regulatory requirements. You will also establish business development opportunities with prospects and clients within the assigned market area. Join a purpose driven winning team, committed to results, in an inclusive and high-performing culture!

Is this role right for you? In this role, you will :

Promote the development and sustainable growth of proprietary investment business in the assigned market area by :

  • Business Development : Executing on business development plans for prospects and existing clients within the mass affluent market. Identifying additional business development opportunities and facilitating the implementation of an investment solution and / or referral to the appropriate partners.
  • Client-Centric : Providing client-centric investment solutions through a financial planning framework, aligning with Global Sales Principles. Conducting outbound communications and proactive calling to prospects to remain top-of-mind for future business opportunities. Conducting complimentary needs analysis across several financial statements, including competitor statements.
  • Community Involvement : Participating actively in local professional and community events and associations to develop and expand your network. Identifying opportunities to deliver community information sessions and financial seminars to grow prospects. Building and maintaining a market profile in the assigned market area. Networking with investment industry specialists while managing a small budget for independent marketing-based activities.

Do you have the skills that will enable you to succeed in this role? We’d love to work with you if you have :

  • 3 years of experience in financial planning and investment sales.
  • Your mutual funds certified professional. You have current accreditation and good standing for MFDA licensing requirements (Investments Funds in Canada or Canadian Securities Course).
  • You have successfully completed a Personal Financial Planning (PFP) designation and / or a Certified Financial Planner (CFP) designation.
  • Proven networking, client acquisition and interpersonal skills; experience building and maintaining Centres of Influence (COIs)
  • You’re goal oriented and entrepreneurial. You can work independently as a self-motivated entrepreneur with minimal supervision and as part of a larger team.
  • Extensive knowledge of competitive offerings, market trends, economic conditions, and the regulatory environment.
  • A valid driver's license and access to a vehicle, to meet clients and prospects within the designated district.
  • What’s in it for you?

  • An entrepreneurial culture with the freedom to develop your career.
  • A fast-paced, flexible work environment where you can set your own hours and meet clients when and where it’s convenient.
  • A compensation structure that rewards growing and maintaining your client base.
  • Access to leading-edge resources to support your growth, including dedicated marketing support, powerful mobile technology, leading CRM, portfolio, and financial planning software.
  • The ability to build long-lasting client relationships through exceptional advice and service.
