The role
You tell your clients to invest for the long term. Do you follow the same advice when it comes to your career?At this company there's no validation to earn bonus and you get 10% on all your ongoing.Not bad when you'll inherit £110,000 of ongoing in year one and a further £100,000 in 2027. Plus your salary (£45,000), plus car allowance (£3,600) and company profit share (£1,800).
Put simply, before writing any new business, year-one earnings should be around £55,000-£60,000 once salary, car allowance, profit share and inherited ongoing income are included. Any new business sits on top and pays at 15%, again with no validation.Given you're inheriting clients from retiring planners, there is clearly opportunity here for new business without having to start from scratch.The salary is a starting point, not a ceiling.

Plus the support of the wider IFA team who are always on hand to help. And we know the people here well. They're a great bunch. You'll find that out at interview.
