Do you enjoy developing experienced advisors to help them delight clients and create value? Are you energized by shaping client engagement strategies, coaching through complexity, and influencing how a wealth management business evolves? Are you looking for a leadership role where your judgment, perspective, and ability to develop others truly matter?

As a UHNW Wealth Advisor, Senior Manager you’ll lead a team of Senior Wealth Advisors serving high‑net‑worth clients with $5M–$15M in managed assets. Vanguard’s Wealth Management business stands apart through its client‑first ownership structure, long‑term investment philosophy, and ability to deliver a suite of solutions including planning, investments, estate planning and trust solutions, private equity, and more.

In this role, you’ll bring that differentiated offer to life by coaching advisors, strengthening client relationships, and shaping how advisors engage their clients and manage their books of business. You’ll partner closely across Wealth Management to influence strategy, elevate the client experience, and develop advisors who are confident, thoughtful, and deeply trusted by the families they serve.

This role is based in our Dallas, Texas office, follows a hybrid working model, and offers relocation assistance for candidates who live 50+ miles away.

Responsibilities:

• Coach and support a team of Senior Wealth Advisors in the Dallas office, helping them strengthen financial planning capabilities, deepen client relationships, and navigate complex client needs.

• Partner with advisors to thoughtfully design and execute client and book‑of‑business strategies that strengthen relationships, improve retention, and support sustainable growth through referrals and net new assets.

• Use strong financial planning and capital markets acumen to help advisors translate market conditions and client goals into clear, practical strategies.

• Expand the impact of Vanguard’s new regional wealth management model with strategies that create high-impact virtual interactions as well as select in-person gestures and client engagements.

• Share insights from advisor and client experiences to help shape broader Wealth Management strategy and continuously improve how we serve clients.

• Navigate ambiguity with confidence, leveraging your network and resources to get up to speed quickly, while building community, sharing perspectives, and leading in a way that’s authentic to you.

Qualifications:

• Demonstrated experience leading and developing financial advisors or other client‑facing professionals, supported by 8+ years of related financial services or advisory experience and a strong ability to coach, mentor, and elevate performance through consultative growth.

• Deep financial planning and capital markets expertise, with the judgment and confidence to guide advisors and engage with clients through complex planning and investment decisions.

• Proven ability to strengthen client relationships and guide thoughtful book‑of‑business strategies that drive strong, long‑term client outcomes.

• Strategic thinking and business acumen, with the ability to contribute to client and business strategy and influence how the Wealth Management business evolves.

• A self‑directed leadership approach, with comfort operating in ambiguity, learning quickly, and leveraging relationships and resources to move work forward.

• Strong communication and influence skills, with the ability to partner across teams and lead through change with clarity and empathy.

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent combination of education and experience; advanced degrees welcomed.

• Certified Financial Planner (CFP®) designation preferred.

• This job requires a regulatory license and/or registration (e.g. FINRA, state, SFC). These will be determined by Compliance based on role‑specific duties.
