Financial Advisor - Annuities

Company: Fisher Investments
Location: Beaverton
Posted on: May 9, 2022

Job Description:

Do you have strong knowledge and familiarity with Variable, Fixed, and Fixed Index Annuities? Do you like the idea of helping investors?

Complicated annuity contracts are sold to investors. We have found that many annuity contract owners do not fully understand how their detailed benefits work nor what the long-term ramifications will be. Fisher Investments, a fiduciary from the start, can help investors get the most out of those complicated annuity benefits or make appropriate changes, all within the focus on the investor's long-term goals.

The Opportunity:

As an Annuity Counselor, you will work primarily with high-net-worth investors. You can use your in-depth knowledge of annuities and other insurance related products to be their advocate. You will work with our analysts to interpret how the details of the annuity benefits correlate towards the investor's financial goals. If appropriate, we can help them surrender their annuity, and upgrade their portfolio to a personalized, global, flexible, long-term strategy. Regardless of the evaluation outcome, the work is extremely rewarding. Join us as we help annuity contract owners and annuity prospects get the information they need to make good investment decisions going forward.

Throughout your experience here, you will develop and broaden your capital markets knowledge, work with nearly every department of our firm, and have merit-based opportunities for advancement throughout your career. You will report to your Group Manager who will aid in your professional development and role specific training.

The Day-to-Day:
Use tools to investigate, analyze, and comprehensively understand the features and benefits of prospective and current clients' specific annuities
Educate prospective and current clients regarding their annuities, including a comprehensive view of the benefits
Work with different internal departments to understand each client's financial situation and potential ramifications associated with keeping or surrendering their annuities
Your Qualifications:
2+ years of experience with insurance/investments with an advanced understanding of annuities and their benefits, including additional riders
Beneficial if you have your State Life & Health or equivalent insurance license in good order
Maintain a positive personality and a strong client focus
Manage complexity and coordinate across several departments under strict timelines
We will help you obtain your Series 65 designation to become a Registered Investment Advisor (if you do not have it already)
