savvy - Client Transition Specialist
Requirements
• You’re resourceful. You figure things out, chase down answers, and don’t wait to be told how to unblock a transition. • You’re detail-obsessed. You catch the error others miss, because you know a single bad field can break a bulk upload or delay a transfer. • You’re never tired of learning. You self-teach new platforms and custodial systems fast, and you’re tech-savvy by default. • You appreciate direct communication. You’re both an active communicator and an eager listener, and you stay calm and clear with advisors under pressure. • You can pivot on the fly. We are fast-growing, so priorities constantly evolve. What you worked on last month may not be the same next month. • You have a humble, “can do” attitude and extreme ownership. Our team creates high-quality work on quick timelines. • You want to be part of a winning team. We’re stronger together, and you embrace being pushed out of your comfort zone. • You will report to the Client Service Onboarding Manager. • 3 to 5+ years in a client operations, account transitions, onboarding, or account management role in wealth management. • Exceptional resourcefulness and a very quick learning curve — you can pick up new custodial platforms and tools on your own, fast. • Hands-on experience working across multiple custodians and a strong grasp of account transfer / onboarding paperwork. • Exceptional organization and attention to detail across many parallel, deadline-driven workstreams. • Strong data hygiene instincts — comfort with spreadsheets and validation logic, and the discipline to catch errors before they compound. • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills, with the empathy and confidence to keep advisors calm and informed under pressure. • A collaborative, low-ego, self-starter attitude with an incredible ownership mentality. • Tech-savvy and adept at quickly learning and adopting new technologies, including AI tools. • Comfort working in a high-growth, constantly changing environment. • Direct experience with Schwab and/or Fidelity custodial platforms • Familiarity with ACAT transfers, LPOA/repaper processes, NIGO resolution, DocuSign, Orion, or Salesforce • Comfort with Excel/Google Sheets at a power-user level (lookups, data validation, cleaning messy files) • Prior work experience at a high-growth startup or a custodian, RIA, and broker-dealer • Experience using AI tools to accelerate data or document work (validation, drafting, summarization) • Additional Information:
