Description: IFA / Independent Financial Adviser -

Existing Client Bank (Henley & Marlow Area)

£50,000-£60,000 + 30% Bonus Remote / Field-Based

A growing, well-established IFA practice in the Henley / Marlow / Reading region is looking to appoint a Level 4 Diploma-qualified, CAS-status Independent Financial Adviser to take over and nurture an existing client bank.

This is a rare opportunity to join a supportive team, inherit warm, loyal clients from day one, and build a long-term advisory career with genuine succession prospects.

The Opportunity

  • £50,000-£60,000 base salary (flexible for the right person) + 30% bonus
  • Immediate client allocation:
  • 15 households transferred on day one
  • 60-client Reading book being acquired by year-end
  • Senior adviser with 200+ households for longer-term succession
  • Field-based / remote role - meet clients in person or via Teams, whichever suits, but you do need to be local to the Buckinghamshire, Berkshire, or Oxfordshire area.
  • Work closely with a senior adviser providing hands-on guidance and mentoring
  • Straightforward planning work: ISAs, pensions, bonds, retirement planning, IHT
  • Clear runway to take over retiring advisers' books as the firm continues to grow

About the Firm

  • Medium-sized IFA practice with 8 advisers
  • Fully remote admin/support structure
  • No central office (small garden offices are available if preferred)
  • Strong inflow of clients via adviser retirements and regulated takeovers
  • Culture centred on simplicity, long-term client relationships, and high-quality ongoing servicing

What You'll Be Doing

  • Managing and servicing an existing HNW client bank
  • Conducting annual reviews and ensuring ongoing advice obligations are met
  • Meeting clients across Henley, Marlow, Reading and surrounding areas
  • Working under the guidance of a senior adviser while still operating autonomously
  • Providing clear, simple, client-friendly financial advice

What We're Looking For

  • Level 4 Diploma + CAS (essential)
  • Someone early-career, ambitious, and hungry to grow with the business
  • A relationship-builder, not a cold-hunter
  • Comfortable working remotely and travelling to client meetings
  • Professional, personable, and committed to long-term progression

Why This Role?

  • Warm clients, zero cold-hunting
  • Clear succession plan and long-term security
  • Strong mentoring and development from senior advisers
  • Flexibility in working style
  • Opportunity to step into a large legacy client bank over time
