We're looking for ambitious students to join our 2026 Financial Advisor Development Program.

You’ll get to:

• gain knowledge in customer service, financial markets, planning, investment strategies, banking and wealth management through interactive training, guidance from experienced leaders, and client interactions

• obtain Series 7 and Series 66 FINRA licenses and Certified Financial Planner (CFP) designation, the standard of excellence in financial planning, with full tuition reimbursement support. Combination of both the Series 63 and the Series 65 exams can be substituted for the Series 66 exam

• develop and deepen connections with clients by providing exceptional experiences, answering inquiries promptly, and managing appointments

• support back and front office operations, adhere to regulatory requirements, and use digital tools to provide holistic financial advice on portfolio management and investment selection

Your team

You’ll be working in the UBS Wealth Advice Center (WAC) offering guidance to Emerging Affluent clients through a hybrid digital experience. Located in Weehawken, New Jersey and Charlotte, North Carolina, the WAC serves over 200,000 clients remotely via inbound and outbound calls. The team consists of more than 300 professionals including Financial Advisors and Client Service Associates. The leadership team supports career advancement and will help you every step of the way once you complete your three-year requirement with the business.

We’re looking for a candidate who:

• has completed their bachelor's degree or equivalent. A background in business administration, wealth management, financial planning, or finance is preferred. Coursework on financial planning through a CFP Board Registered Program is preferred

• has completed the SIE at least 30 days before joining and is expected to pass the Series 7 and Series 66 within 150 days of starting.

• has values that align with ours: hard-working, trustworthy, dedicated and collaborative

• is a strategic thinker with strong communication skills

• is motivated to work in a business with high demands and tight deadlines

We’re looking for someone who’s curious and wants to thrive in a business that never stops moving. We welcome all majors, but it’s important to have an interest in the financial industry. We want to see what makes you unique and discover what you can bring to our team.
