The Mandate

• Grow market share in a highly competitive IFA landscape

• Build and lead a high-performance BC team

What You Bring

• Minimum 4 years’ experience servicing independent financial advisers
• Proven ability to drive production and influence IFA behaviour
• Leadership capability — with a track record of developing others
• Strong credibility in the market
• Relevant qualification (B.Comm / CFP® advantageous)
