There’s power in partnership.

Your passion. Our purpose. We can make an impact together. Join a team that empowers you to shape the future of client service. Everything we do is focused on helping clients achieve what’s most important to them, all while giving you the opportunity to innovate, collaborate and grow.

What you do every day helps people achieve and protect their financial goals. You’ll have access to cutting-edge tools, continuous learning programs, mentorship from experienced leaders, and a culture that values every voice and idea.

  • Position Schedule: Full-Time

    This job posting is anticipated to remain open for 30 days, from 12-Aug-2026. The posting may close early due to the volume of applicants.

    Our Culture of Compliance defines how we uphold the highest professional, legal, and ethical standards in everything we do. Rooted in our core values, it guides our decisions, strengthens trust with clients and colleagues, promotes accountability, and enables us to identify and address issues proactively. Through this shared commitment, we foster enduring relationships and advance our purpose with integrity.

    The mission of our Field Leadership teams, accomplished through Colleague and Culture Leaders (CACLs) or Regional Leaders, is to reinforce the firm’s commitment to compliance by bringing our core values to life through everyday actions and decisions. As part of Compliance, the Culture of Compliance Consultant Team partners with CACLs, Regional Leaders, Market Leaders and Home Office Stakeholders to strengthen a culture of integrity and accountability across the field and home office. Through consultation, education, and strategic support, the team helps leaders, branch teams and home office departments deliver outcomes that reflect our core values and uphold the highest professional and ethical standards.

    As a Senior Culture of Compliance Consultant, you will serve as a trusted advisor to Field Leadership teams, helping connect compliance priorities to business purpose and influencing the behaviors that strengthen a culture of integrity, accountability, and sound decision-making. Through data-driven insights, strategic consultation, and targeted education, you will help leaders identify opportunities to improve compliance outcomes, integrate compliance considerations into regional business strategies, and drive sustainable results across markets and regions. Ultimately, you will help foster an environment where doing the right thing is embedded in everyday decisions and actions. Success in this role requires strong partnerships across Field Leadership, Compliance, and key stakeholders across the organization to ensure alignment, enable effective execution, and strengthen a culture of continuous learning, accountability, and development.

    What You’ll Do:

    • Lead and advance Culture of Compliance strategies that strengthen ethical decision-making, protect client and firm interests, and reinforce adherence to regulatory and firm standards.
    • Serve as a trusted compliance advisor to Market Leadership, Regional Culture of Compliance teams, and Colleague and Culture Leaders (CACLs), driving accountability for compliance outcomes.
    • Build leadership awareness and expertise in regulatory requirements, firm policies, emerging compliance trends, and risk-based decision-making.
    • Design, implement, and scale compliance programs and initiatives that promote consistent ethical behaviors across markets, regions, and business functions.
    • Partner with and influence leaders to achieve compliance objectives while balancing business priorities and regulatory expectations.
    • Lead cross-functional and cross-divisional initiatives, including program design, testing, implementation, and continuous improvement efforts.
    • Leverage data, tools, and insights to identify emerging risks, monitor compliance trends, communicate opportunities, and enhance program effectiveness.
    • Contribute as a peer leader by supporting team development, providing interim leadership when needed, and championing inclusion, accessibility, and a strong compliance culture.

    Our partnership structure frees you to focus on your clients.

    Being a partnership makes us distinctly different from our competitors. More than a structure, it’s a mindset. And it permeates every aspect of our business. From how we work with each other – think collaboration not competition – to our long-term investment philosophy. It’s most at work in our shared focus on doing what’s right for the client. And it’s easy for us to do. Because we have no competing interests. No shareholders clamoring for short-term profits. We can take the long view, because we only answer to our clients. And to ourselves. Our financial advisors find this single-minded focus freeing. A clear mandate for success. And a clear path to get there.
