About The Position

The Financial Solutions Advisor Stage I (FSA I) role begins with dedicated training to obtain securities industry licenses, including the SIE, Series 7, and Series 66 (or accepted Series 63 and 65 licenses). After licensing, the advisor learns foundational skills for acquiring, building, and managing client relationships, evaluating clients’ financial circumstances, and providing advice and solutions. After meeting key milestones, the advisor works in a financial center to support core banking, investment solutions, and client care. Successful Stage I advisors typically progress to Financial Solutions Advisor Stage II, where they develop and deepen relationships with a portfolio of clients, with opportunities to pursue other roles at Bank of America and Merrill. The position is subject to SAFE Act registration requirements, including registration with the federal registry and completion of the required background check and registration process. The role requires obtaining the SIE within 30 days of hire and the Series 7 and Series 66 within 120 days. The position is based at the East Anaheim Financial Center and follows an in-office culture. The schedule is Monday through Friday with rotating Saturdays, first shift, 40 hours per week.
