- Holding FINRA Series 6, Series 63, or higher licenses—or a clear plan to obtain them.
- Demonstrated passion for delivering high‑quality, empathetic customer service.
- Ability to adapt communication style to a diverse client base, from baby boomers to Gen Z retirees.
- Detail‑oriented mindset with a knack for learning and applying complex financial policies, procedures, and compliance standards.

- Problem‑Solving: Diagnose issues quickly and propose clear, actionable steps.
- Technical Proficiency: Comfort using CRM platforms, call‑center software, and Microsoft Office suite.
- Regulatory Awareness: Basic understanding of retirement‑plan regulations (ERISA, IRS rules) and willingness to deepen that knowledge.
- Team Orientation: Collaborative spirit that thrives in a supportive, coaching‑rich environment.
- Time Management: Ability to prioritize tasks, meet deadlines, and handle multiple inquiries efficiently.
