It’s a chance to build a practice in a local community while developing hands-on expertise in investment planning and client service.

The company emphasizes a purpose-driven approach to work, inclusion, and community impact, backed by a comprehensive benefits package and ongoing training opportunities.

This opportunity tends to attract self-motivated professionals who are genuinely curious about markets, enjoy learning, and excel at forming lasting relationships. If you’re excited by a path that blends financial guidance with ownership of your growth in a local market, this could be the right fit.

Guiding local clients toward financial confidence

In this role, daily work revolves around meeting clients to understand their goals, family needs and retirement timelines, then translating those insights into tailored investment and financial plans. You’ll stay in close touch with clients, reviewing strategies as markets move and adjusting recommendations accordingly, all while quietly expanding your client base by turning inquiries into ongoing relationships. The daily rhythm mixes service with business development, so you’ll have opportunities to broaden your footprint while delivering solid guidance.

What you’ll bring to the table

Edward Jones seeks a blend of ambition, self-motivation and skill at building long-standing client partnerships. The right person is eager to learn, embraces challenges and is comfortable thinking critically to inform decisions. They’re drawn to new opportunities and to helping clients progress toward their financial objectives.

• A bachelor’s degree is strongly preferred or you have equivalent work experience in securities or financial services
• Experience in financial services and/or sales that demonstrates an ability to grow a client base
• Current or potential registrations, licenses, or certifications in the financial services space
• A career path in a professional setting or military environment that shows progression and responsibility

Licensing is part of the journey: the SIE exam can be pursued without firm sponsorship, while completing the Series 7 and Series 66 will be required; if you aren’t already registered, Edward Jones can support you through a paid study period. FINRA registrations must be finalized within three months, and state insurance licenses will be required. Ongoing training from the firm and regulators, plus continuing education, keeps licenses in good standing.

Compensation, benefits and the practical setup

The compensation path is designed to grow with you. The starting point is a supplemental salary range of $45,000 to $100,000, with further earnings tied to performance as you bring in new assets and expand your book. The program also includes trainee pay and a supplemental salary for up to five years, along with commissions and compensation for new assets gathered in the early years.

The benefits package covers medical and prescription drug, dental and vision, plus disability income protection and basic life and accidental death coverage at no cost to the advisor. A 401(k) plan is available, along with health savings and flexible spending accounts. You’ll enjoy schedule flexibility and accrued paid time off and paid sick leave where allowed by law. Bonus opportunities, profit sharing and paid parental leave may apply, and there’s access to travel awards and an Employee Assistance Program.

Tips to stand out for the El Paso Financial Advisor role

Lead your resume with a line that highlights your ability to grow a client base or your experience delivering personalized financial guidance. If you’ve worked in financial services or sales, show how you turned conversations into durable client relationships and measurable outcomes.

When you prove the must-have skills, share a concrete story that demonstrates relationship building, critical thinking and a learning mindset. Outline a time you diagnosed a client need, proposed a plan and adjusted it as circumstances changed, with a clear result for the client.

For interviews, come prepared with examples of how you would approach client discovery, how you would tailor investment solutions, and how you’d take ownership of your practice’s growth. Be ready to discuss your licensing progress or your plan to obtain SIE, Series 7 and Series 66, and how Edward Jones would support you through that process.

Ask a smart question that shows you care about the role's path and impact, such as how the training program supports new advisors through licensing and credentialing, how success is measured in the early years, and what the company does to help advisors contribute to their community beyond the desk.
