Platform and operations backbone for independent wealth advisor networks
Sanctuary Wealth operates a multi-subsidiary infrastructure for independent wealth advisors—combining broker-dealer services, investment advisory, and alternative asset management into a single partner ecosystem. The hiring mix skews heavily toward finance and operations roles (15 of 23 open positions) with senior-level dominance, reflecting the operational complexity of onboarding and supporting 120+ partner firms managing $50B in assets. Active projects center on integrating external wealth-planning tools (eMoney, Orion, Fidelity Wealthscape) and streamlining month-end close and financial review workflows—pain points that suggest scaling pressure as new advisors join the network.
Sanctuary Wealth is a partnered-independence platform serving elite wealth advisors seeking to build and own their practices without going fully independent. Founded in 2018 and headquartered in Indianapolis, the company operates through wholly owned subsidiaries including Sanctuary Advisors (SEC-registered investment adviser), Sanctuary Securities (FINRA broker-dealer), and several specialized operating companies covering alternative assets, family office services, and insurance solutions. The network spans 120+ partner firms across 30 states. In 2024, Sanctuary expanded its affiliation options by acquiring tru Independence, creating multiple partnership models.
