Looking to make an impact at a unique, mission-centered financial services organization? Join Covenant Trust as a Financial Advisor!
At Covenant Trust, you will be the ambassador and primary driver of our mission to provide trusted and uncompromising financial guidance and products to our clients throughout the communities we serve.

- Enhance client retention by building trust, establishing strong relationships, and communicating effectively with clients. Empower and embolden clients by providing ongoing education regarding their financial decisions.
- Work collaboratively with team members, Trust Officers, and Trust Administrators to provide a fiduciary level of client care that matches client needs to our wide array of financial solutions: Investment Management, Retirement Planning, Income Planning, Trust Administration, Estate Planning, and Gift Planning.
What we look for:
- Five (5) years of experience in the financial services or related industry.
- CFP® designation preferred, or other demonstrated financial expertise or competencies.
- Previous experience using a CRM.
- Previous success in managing a book of clients is a plus.
- Prior experience with Right Capital, Salesforce, and MS platforms is a plus.
- A heart for serving others and a passion for helping individuals and mission-centered institutions achieve their financial and charitable planning goals.
- Periodic travel throughout assigned territory to meet with prospects/clients.
Salary and Benefits:
- Competitive base salary – $80,000-100,000 plus a goal-driven bonus opportunity & structured bonus opportunity.
