Paraplanner for NewRetirement Advisors

Full-time

• Remote
  
  

At NewRetirement, our aim is to enable anyone to do better by making the most of their money and time. Our comprehensive financial planning platform allows users themselves to create a holistic financial plan. We’re at the precipice of an exciting time at our company. We have recently seen exponential growth, we’ve raised $20+M from top investors, and we’re optimistic about the future as we grow.

We also have an advising business, NewRetirement Advisors, a wholly-owned subsidiary of NewRetirement. NewRetirement Advisors enables users to collaborate with a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional to get expert reassurance that they are on the right track and to identify and achieve their financial goals.

We think that this collaborative approach is the future of financial advice. The world changes fast and people deserve more than a 30-page paper financial plan that’s outdated a week after they get it. With NewRetirement Advisors, clients get:

• A more affordable option than traditional financial advice
• Expert advice in the form of a financial roadmap prepared by the CFP professional
• Online tools to collaborate with the CFP professional and to be able to answer some of their own questions and improve their own financial know-how
• Defined meetings with the CFP professional for one to one guidance
