Bonus Points:
- Prior experience in a wealth management, trust, or investment services environment
- Familiarity with financial operations (wires, ACHs, internal transfers, etc.)
- Experience managing continuing education programs or marketing mailings
- Skilled in systems like Microsoft Office Suite programs and Adobe Acrobat
- You love a good checklist and aren't afraid to speak up when something looks off
What we can offer you:
