Make Your Next Move Your Best Move!

Our Approach as Financial Services Recruiters

As a successful Financial Advisor, you have a tremendous array of career options and Willis Consulting, as your financial head hunter, can open up a world of opportunities for you.

Our approach is to listen carefully and thoroughly understand both your career and life objectives before we present any career opportunities.

Our mission is to place you with a firm that will best complement your career goals and life objectives—whether that is with a brokerage firm, custodian, registered investment advisor, or a bank.

We will always represent you and your needs, professionally and discreetly.

Breakway Brokers are in Demand!

Currently, there are approximately 110,000 independent FA’s in the United States. The trend towards practice ownership and breakaway firms is at an all time high and continues to grow. You’ve worked hard to develop a solid relationship with your clients and you can expect a loyal client following when you make the change to an independent broker. Generally independent financial firms offer breakaway consultants a very high payout, and Willis Consulting represents a wide variety of independent and RIA options.

Are you thinking about winding down?

There comes a time in every independent Financial Advisor’s life when they would rather spend more time in flip-flops than flipping stocks. Willis Consulting can assist you with your practice valuation and confidentially connect you with pre-qualified buyers. And, in most cases, the party buying a financial services practice will pay our fee.

We’ve helped thousands of Independant Owners succesfully evaluate their business, find a qualified buyer and negotiate the paperwork necessary for a smooth transition into a new chapter of their lives!
