Financial Advisor Serving United States Marines
A Unique Opportunity to Stay Connected to and Give Back to The Marine Corps Community
Who we are
First Command was founded in 1958 by a retired military officer committed to helping service members and their families improve their financial well-being. Today, more than 500 First Command Financial Advisors - four out five of whom are veterans or military spouses - are committed to the company's Mission of “Coaching those who serve in their pursuit of financial security.”
Our team is committed to helping the United States Marine Corps and their families get their financial lives squared away. In order to strengthen our ability to fulfill that commitment, we are now seeking to grow our team and have an immediate opening for a transitioning service member or veteran from the Marine community interested in pursuing a career as a Financial Advisor.
These qualities define a great First Command Financial Advisor
Contrary to popular belief, strong math skills are not the most important quality in a financial advisor! Our experience has led us to believe that the three most important qualities for our Advisors to possess are:
1. Knowing and understanding the people they seek to serve.2. Possessing strong leadership and coaching skills.3. Having a genuine passion to serve.
That's why we prioritize the hiring of veterans and military spouses to serve as First Command Financial Advisors. If you like the idea of a second career that gives you the opportunity to stay connected to and give back to the military community, this just might be the right opportunity for you. Lifelong learners with a strong internal drive, an entrepreneurial mindset and a desire for professional growth excel.
