Market Operations Director

Bethesda, MD • Posted 2 days ago
Remote Full Time Staffing and Recruiting


If you have any interest in considering a move, this is my favorite firm, which is saying a lot. This is a unique opportunity to join a highly successful, rapidly growing wealth management organization that continues to expand nationally and offers the opportunity to have a meaningful impact.


Unlike more traditional large financial institutions, this firm offers the opportunity to influence decisions, contribute ideas, take ownership of initiatives, and work closely with senior leadership, while enjoying the resources and stability of an established organization.


The Market Business Director provides hands-on operational leadership across multiple branch locations, overseeing day-to-day business operations, compliance supervision, financial advisor support, advisor onboarding, and employee management.


A particularly important aspect of the role is leading, coaching and developing support professionals, while building trusted relationships with financial advisors and helping ensure their teams operate effectively.


Location: Washington, DC / Bethesda, MD (Hybrid, 3 days in office, 2 remote)

Reports to: Head of Market Operations

Compensation: $150K–$165K base plus 10%–20% annual bonus opportunity plus Equity

Benefits: Medical, Dental, Vision, Life Insurance, 401(k), PTO and holidays

Culture: Collaborative, entrepreneurial, low-ego environment where employees are empowered to make decisions, contribute ideas and grow professionally.


Background & Licensing

  • Active Series 7 and Series 9/10 (or potentially Series 24 equivalent, subject to confirmation)
  • Series 66 (or 63 and 65) preferred
  • Life & Health Insurance license a plus
  • 10+ years of wealth management experience, ideally within a broker-dealer, RIA or wirehouse
  • Strong background in branch operations, compliance supervision and financial advisor support
  • Experience managing, coaching and developing support professionals
  • Advisor onboarding and transition experience preferred
  • Comfortable working three days per week in DC/Bethesda, with occasional travel to other Mid-Atlantic branches
