ABOUT APELLA
Apella Wealth is an employee-owned, wealth advisory firm (RIA) headquartered in West Hartford, CT with offices across the nation serving thousands of investors, families, businesses and institutions.
Founded in 2014, we are growing rapidly with approximately $12B in assets under management. We are scaling both organically and through strategic acquisitions as we enter new regional markets and develop world-class, client-relevant capabilities.
Most importantly, we are growing by identifying the right partners that embrace our culture, share in our values, and are dedicated to putting client service first in all they do.
We compete for talent.
We owe it to our clients and our co-workers to find the right people for them and us. At Apella, we do meaningful financial planning with people we genuinely enjoy working with.
THE ROLE
As an Apella Client Relationship Specialist , you will serve as a primary point of contact for High Net Worth (HNW) and Ultra High Net Worth (UHNW) clients working in close, daily collaboration with one or more Apella Advisors. This role reports into a Client Relationship Specialist, Lead and works as part of a team of two or more CRSs being supported by an Account Services Associate (ASA).
This is a rare opportunity to step into a well-supported, high-trust, client-facing role within a national, fee-only RIA. You will receive the opportunity to shape and build deep, meaningful relationships with HNW/UHNW clients as you support seasoned Apella Advisors and provide increasing leverage to their activities.
Where you will work:
This role is based in our Bellevue, WA office. We believe our best work happens through in-person collaboration, partnership, mentorship and relationship building with flexibility for remote work as needed at the discretion of team leadership.
The CRS role has two equally important areas of focus:
First, you will be charged with assisting experienced advisors as they lead client relationships and deliver holistic financial advisement across retirement planning, investments, tax planning, estate management, and insurance. In this high leverage role, you will be tasked with providing support to the Apella Advisor(s) across all administrative and operational areas. As your experience and knowledge grow, client support work done by the Apella Advisor(s) will increasingly shift to you as you become more capable of providing capacity on the team.
The second area of focus is building the client relationship. This role has daily interaction with Apella clients. As such, you will be on the front-line impacting their experience as an Apella client and representing the firm with every touch point. The expectation is that the CRS will consistently exceed client expectations and develop a rapport that fosters confidence, client loyalty, and long-term value for both the client and firm.
Though the position is client facing, this is not a sales-related role and there is zero expectation of business development. As such, we seek individuals aligned with our culture and who look forward to working closely with a collaborative team led by seasoned CFP® practitioners and client service leaders.
