Associate Vice President, Focus Team - Wealth Advisor

Remote, United States

Company Description

Farther is a rapidly growing RIA that combines expert advisors with cutting-edge technology - delivering a comprehensive, tailored wealth management experience.

Farther’s founders are leaders and innovators from the private wealth industry who possess a unique blend of traditional wealth management, fintech, and technology production expertise. We’re backed by top-tier venture capital firms, fintech investors, and industry leaders.

Joining Farther means joining a collaborative team of entrepreneurs who are passionate about helping their clients and our teammates achieve more. If you’re the type who breaks through walls to get things done the right way, we want to build the future of wealth management with you.

The Role

As an AVP, Wealth Advisor on the Focus Team, you will be a producing advisor building your own book of business from the ground up, with a clear path to owning the practice you build.

The Focus Team exists to be the premier pathway to building your own thriving financial advisory practice. We provide the infrastructure, specialized knowledge, and market access that would take years to develop on your own—so you can focus on what matters: serving clients and growing your business.

You'll join a collaborative team with advisors at all levels—from those building their first book to senior advisors approaching partnership. Leadership is accessible, knowledge is shared freely, and everyone is invested in each other's success. We believe the sum is greater than its parts, and that belief shapes everything we do.

The Focus Team Difference

Joining the Focus Team isn't just joining Farther—it's joining a team within Farther that provides:

  • Unmatched Market Access: We conduct events inside major Fortune 500 companies nationwide. When prospects see you presenting in their own building, credibility is instant. This access took years to build. You get it on day one.
  • Specialized Knowledge Training: We don't just teach you how to sell. We teach you the internal language, benefits structures, and culture of our target companies so deeply that prospects recognize you as an insider. This is the edge that sets our advisors apart.
  • Dedicated Support Infrastructure: Support from a dedicated team for service, marketing support, and tools—resources the team invests in that you'd never have access to on your own.
  • Accessible, Collaborative Culture: Leadership is hands-on and approachable. The team lead does the same work he asks anyone else to do. Ideas flow freely across all levels, and senior advisors actively mentor those coming up behind them.

Your Impact

  • Build Your Client Base: Leverage the Focus Team's established market access and coordinated events to connect with high-net-worth prospects. We run events inside major corporations—going where most advisors can't—giving you direct access to qualified prospects in environments where trust is already established.
  • Deliver Exceptional Advisory Services: Conduct comprehensive discovery sessions that uncover clients' true financial objectives. Present customized wealth management solutions using Farther's technology platform to deliver a client experience that traditional advisories simply can't match.
  • Leverage Specialized Knowledge: Tap into deep institutional knowledge of our target markets. We train advisors on internal company terminology, benefits programs, and culture so thoroughly that prospects often assume you work alongside them. This isn't generic sales training—it's the kind of insider knowledge that builds instant credibility.
  • Grow With The Team: Participate in the Leadership Development Program as you progress, mentor future advisors, and contribute to expanding into new markets. Your success creates opportunities for others, and their success amplifies yours.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
