We call it a branch team for a reason.

We know building strong client relationships takes time – a lot of it. And we’re serious about being client centric, that’s why we support you with a branch office administrator (BOA). Either working alongside you in your branch office from day one, or supporting you from our headquarters until your practice meets the criteria for hiring a BOA. When the time comes, we will help you recruit and hire the BOA, pay their salary and benefits, and provide training. The BOA will manage your office and the day-to-day interactions with your clients – giving you the time you need to build and deepen those most-important relationships.

If I were to single out the key secret ingredients to the support our financial advisors receive, I would say the first is the Branch Office Administrator and second the veteran financial advisors who volunteer their time and experience. That work is done in the spirit of true partnership and, I believe, cannot be found anywhere else.

Our spirit of collaboration may surprise you.

Financial Advisors in your region will collaborate – not compete – with you.

Our partnership structure supports a collaborative culture unique in the financial services industry – where financial advisors don’t feel in direct competition with one another. Quite the opposite. You’ll meet several times a year for in-depth discussions on business-building ideas, best practices and practice management. Veteran or rookie, you each run your own practice. No hierarchy here. Just a support network unlike any other. Leveling the playing field. And freeing all advisors to build the career they want.

Your regional leader is there for you.

Your Edward Jones branch is part of a region. And one of your biggest supports is your regional leader – a highly successful, well-respected veteran financial advisor committed to advancing the overall health and growth of the region. You don’t report to your regional leader. If anything, they are accountable to you – and their biggest job is helping you succeed.

The culture at Edward Jones is also one of a kind. Edward Jones’ financial advisors help each other through the sharing of best practices and mentoring programs. With the support provided, I was able to build a steadily growing business, provide for my family and do rewarding work daily by helping my clients achieve their financial goals. That is proof that I made the right decision to join Edward Jones.
