    Job Description

    Are you an experienced Financial Planner seeking a rare opportunity to inherit a high-quality client book and build long-term relationships with ultra-high-net-worth families?

    This is a genuinely exceptional succession role with one of the UK's leading national financial advisory firms, a business managing over £7Bn in client assets and continuing to grow through strategic acquisition.

    The Opportunity

    You'll take over a well-established client book following the firm's recent acquisition of a prestigious regional practice. The portfolio consists of around 200 UHNW families, producing approximately £700k of recurring income, and has been nurtured by the existing adviser over 40 years.

    Over the next 12-18 months, you'll work closely with the current adviser to build trusted relationships with clients, ensuring a smooth transition before taking full ownership of the book.

    The focus is on exceptional client service and relationship management, though the role also offers significant potential to develop and grow the portfolio further.

    Key Details

    • Fully serviced client bank provided - c.200 UHNW families

    • Recurring income circa £700k

    • Full handover and mentoring period from the existing adviser (retiring 2027)

    • Home-based role with flexible working and office access as required

    • Client locations primarily across London, Kent, Surrey, and Sussex

    • Full paraplanning and sales support provided

    About You

    • Level 4 Diploma qualified (Chartered or working towards preferred)

    • Minimum 3 years' experience providing holistic financial advice

    • Strong client relationship and interpersonal skills

    • Entrepreneurial and commercially minded with a focus on long-term service

    • Located within a commutable distance of Sidcup or the South East region

    Remuneration & Benefits

    • Highly flexible basic salary, fully negotiable for the right individual

    • 35% bonus on new business written + share of recurring income

    • Uncapped earning potential

    • Excellent benefits package

    • Full paraplanning and administrative support

    This is an outstanding opportunity for a high-calibre Financial Planner to step into a ready-made UHNW client bank and continue a legacy of exceptional service, with the full backing of a national, well-resourced advisory business.
