Future Opportunity: We are not actively hiring for this position at this time. We are keeping this posting open to connect with talented candidates for anticipated hiring needs in 2027. If this role aligns with your experience, we encourage you to apply so we can consider you when hiring resumes. The Willis Johnson Wealth (WJW) Wealth Management Development Program is a structured two-year rotational experience designed to build the technical foundation and professional confidence needed for a long-term career in wealth management. During the program, you’ll gain hands-on exposure to every stage of the client journey, rotating across:

- Tax Operations – partner with our in-house CPA team during busy season to see tax strategies in action
- Portfolio Management – contribute to reporting, trading, and investment analysis
- Financial Planning – support advisors in developing comprehensive, client-centered financial plans
At the end of the program, you’ll be prepared to pursue advancement as a future financial advisor, operations leader, or tax professional.

- Collaborative – You thrive in a team environment, sharing credit, supporting others, and believing that collective success is the goal.
- Proactive – You anticipate needs, take initiative without being asked, and keep projects moving forward.
