As our deal flow grows, we're hiring a detail-oriented Sales & Client Operations Associate to support our senior advisor and keep every client relationship moving smoothly from first conversation to close.

This position is the operational backbone of the practice. You will own the day-to-day workflow around each deal, client follow-up, scheduling, CRM management, deadline tracking, and paperwork coordination. This allows the advisor to focus his time entirely on clients. It's a high-trust, high-ownership seat ideal for someone who takes pride in accuracy, organization, and never letting a detail slip.

• Deadline tracking - Monitor escrow close dates and the 45- and 180-day 1031 exchange timelines; proactively flag and escalate time-sensitive items before they become issues.

• Paperwork & coordination - Prepare and track subscription and account documents, coordinate with custodians, QIs, CPAs, and realtors, and keep each deal's documentation complete and current.

• Lead & data management - Organize, enrich, and maintain the contact database; prepare recurring activity and pipeline reports for the advisor.

• Compliance support - Maintain records consistent with firm and FINRA requirements and support audit-readiness.

This position does not provide investment advice, make securities recommendations, or maintain a book of business. All product- and suitability-related matters are handled by the licensed advisor.
