Wealth management recruiting and practice consulting
Lead Advisor is a two-founder consulting firm serving wealth management practices and solo advisors. The founding team—both CFP-credentialed with 10+ years in financial planning management—positions talent acquisition as a core service lever. The 19 active roles across finance, HR, ops, and sales, with 8 posted in the last 30 days, suggest aggressive internal scaling alongside client delivery of recruiting and leadership consulting.
