About The Position

The Financial Solutions Advisor Stage I (FSA I) role begins with dedicated training and study time to obtain securities industry licenses: the SIE, Series 7, and Series 66 (or Series 63 and 65 in lieu of Series 66). The role requires obtaining the SIE within 30 days of hire and the Series 7 and Series 66 within 120 days. After licensing, the advisor learns foundational skills for acquiring, building, and managing client relationships; assessing clients’ financial circumstances; and providing advice and solutions. After reaching key milestones, the advisor works in a financial center to deliver core banking and investment solutions and client care.

The role is part of a staged development path. Following demonstrated success as a licensed Financial Solutions Advisor Stage I, the employee typically progresses to Financial Solutions Advisor Stage II, where they continue developing and deepening relationships with a client portfolio. Further advancement opportunities are available within Bank of America and Merrill, with career support from The Academy.

The position is subject to SAFE Act registration requirements. Employees engaged in residential mortgage loan originations must register with the federal registry system, complete the required background check and registration process, and remain in good standing. Failure to obtain or maintain registration may result in immediate termination. The position is open across the market; the financial center location will depend on business needs. Training takes place at one financial center, and the employee may initially work in a phone-based capacity until another location within a reasonable commuting distance is determined, as permitted by law.
