Paraplanner - Looking to move into Advice Wokingham £45,000 - £60,000 (depending on experience) Salaried position + discretionary bonus Ready to step into advice - with the right support and no need to self-generate clients? If you're a Paraplanner who enjoys the technical side of financial planning but is now ready to move into an adviser role, this is a rare opportunity to do that in a structured, supported way. You'll initially join in a paraplanning capacity as part of an orientation phase, allowing you to get to grips with the firm's processes, clients and approach - before quickly progressing into an adviser role with full support. Client Overview This is a highly respected, fully independent financial planning firm known for delivering genuinely holistic, whole-of-market advice built on long-term client relationships. The team is close-knit, collaborative and well-structured, with dedicated paraplanning and administration support allowing advisers to focus on clients. Each adviser typically manages around 80 clients, ensuring relationships are meaningful, manageable and never volume-driven. We've placed into this business before, and feedback has consistently highlighted the culture, structure and long-term progression on offer. This role would suit a Diploma-qualified Paraplanner, ideally working towards Chartered, who is ready to take the next step into advice. Role Details Starting in a paraplanning/orientation phase, supporting advisers with technical research, report writing and financial planning. Working closely with three experienced advisers, gaining exposure to client relationships and advice delivery. Attending client meetings and gradually taking a more active role in discussions and recommendations. Building relationships with clients early on, supported by the wider team. Progressing quickly into leading client meetings and delivering advice independently. Gradually inheriting a portfolio of clients as part of a structured transition into an adviser role. This is a genuine pathway into advice, designed to help you build confidence, technical understanding and client relationships at the right pace. Benefits / Details £45,000 - £60,000 salary depending on experience. Discretionary bonus scheme. 6% pension contribution. Private medical insurance and life cover (DIS). 25 days holiday plus bank holidays. Full support from a dedicated paraplanning and administration team. Clear pathway into a fully-fledged adviser role with an existing client bank provided. What They're Looking For Strong paraplanning experience within an IFA or financial planning firm. Diploma qualified, ideally working towards Chartered status. Confident communicator with the ability to build client relationships. Someone who enjoys technical planning and is ready to step into a client-facing role. A collaborative team player with a long-term mindset. If you're a Paraplanner ready to move into advice - with full support, a structured transition and clients provided - please apply and we can discuss the role in more detail.
