Client Relationship Associate (Liaison)

About Northeast Private Client Group

Northeast Private Client Group is a boutique financial advisory firm built for entrepreneurs, professionals, and families pursuing genuine — and often multigenerational — wealth.

We operate as strategic business advisors and critical thinkers, not order-takers. Our firm was founded on a simple conviction: that real success comes from listening closely and engaging proactively, and that this is what allows us to guide clients toward lasting financial equilibrium.

We are small enough that individual contribution is visible and consequential, and established enough to offer exposure to high-end client opportunities, genuine responsibility, and the infrastructure to support both.

About the Opportunity

The Client Relationship Associate is the primary administrative and client-experience contact for a dedicated advisory team. This role directs execution instructions from the advisors to the firm's back-office departments, tracks each resulting task through to completion, and manages the client communication that surrounds it.

The position sits at the center of three flows of information, including data gathered from clients, direction issued by advisors, and execution carried out across our service, planning, insurance, and investment teams. You will own the accuracy and momentum of all three — maintaining what has been requested, what is outstanding, and what is complete, while driving open items forward and avoiding delays.

Coordination and Execution Across Departments

• Assign, sequence, and track work across departments — monitoring until open items are executed

Onboarding and Ongoing Service

• Coordinate the delegation and execution of rollovers, transfers, distributions, and required minimum distributions from qualified retirement plans through to completion
• Support insurance application, underwriting, and policy servicing workflows, keeping clients informed and cases moving forward in the pipeline

Opportunity Management

• Maintain and manage the team’s open opportunity pipeline alongside the Lead Advisor POD
• Track outstanding information requests and documentation, and drive them to completion through consistent, proactive follow-up
• Support closing of opportunities through oversight and communication with Lead Advisor on the opportunity pipeline, and identify leads/opportunities that have stagnated or become delayed

Growth

This is a role designed to expand. As you develop mastery, the scope of what you own — clients, complexity, and influence over how the work gets done — grows with you. We invest in people who commit to this seat and get genuinely excellent at it. We also support internal mobility. Team members who demonstrate strength in other areas of the business are considered for open positions across the firm where the fit is right.
