Quilter Academy Bridging Programme - Level 4 Self-employed Financial Adviser - Cardiff

Have you already completed your Level 4 qualification and are looking for an opportunity to become a financial adviser? We work with bright, ambitious people from many different backgrounds who are interested in joining a firm as a self-employed financial adviser. A career as a financial adviser can offer you:

Quilter’s Financial Adviser Academy is designed to help you easily transition into this rewarding new career with support, confidence, and assurance. If you currently work in financial services, you’ll already be aware of the high demand for financial advisers, and the great opportunities this career path can offer. Or, if you come from a different industry, the Quilter Academy is committed to making it easy for you to start in this fantastic, growing sector. If you can answer YES to these questions, we’d love to speak to you:

• I’m hard working and driven, with an excellent work ethic.
• I have good attention to detail, strong maths skills, and can learn to analyse financial information.
