Company Description

Farther is a rapidly growing RIA that combines expert advisors with cutting-edge technology - delivering a comprehensive, tailored wealth management experience.

Farther’s founders are leaders and innovators from the private wealth industry who possess a unique blend of traditional wealth management, fintech, and technology production expertise. We’re backed by top-tier venture capital firms, fintech investors, and industry leaders.

Joining Farther means joining a collaborative team of entrepreneurs who are passionate about helping their clients and our teammates achieve more. If you’re the type who breaks through walls to get things done the right way, we want to build the future of wealth management with you.

The Role

We're looking for a seasoned wealth management leader to step in as Head of Advisor Resources for approximately 6.5 months while our current leader is on leave. This is not a placeholder role. You'll lead a 22-person team across five advisor-facing functions — stepping in with full authority and accountability from day one.

The right person for this role has already built and led organizations like this one. They can earn trust fast, set the standard for a high-performing team, and leave things in measurably better shape than they found them.

Your Impact

Own the strategy, goals, and performance of five advisor-facing teams: Investment Solutions, Advanced Planning (financial planning, trust & estate, tax, 401k, and business services), Farther Insurance Group, Lead Generation, and Process Improvement
Manage and develop 6 direct reports, building accountability and momentum across a 22-person organization
Drive measurable increases in advisor adoption across all service lines; ensuring Farther's resources are a genuine differentiator in advisor recruiting, retention, and client growth
Lead Farther's 1H 2027 goal-setting cycle, partnering with team leaders to set ambitious, measurable goals aligned to firm-wide priorities; conduct year-end performance reviews for direct reports
Champion the adoption of AI and tech-enabled solutions across all teams: partnering with product and engineering to embed technology into how advisory services are built and delivered
Serve as the primary conduit between Advisor Resources and executive leadership; translating team-level progress, risks, and opportunities into clear executive visibility
Oversee FIG & Lead Gen's P&L and hold the team accountable to revenue and profitability targets

The Ideal Match

15+ years in wealth management; RIA, IBD, or wealth management platform experience strongly preferred
10+ years leading multiple teams at a senior level, with a track record of developing leaders and driving accountability
Deep familiarity with the full spectrum of wealth management services: financial planning, investment advisory, trust & estate, tax, and insurance
Proven ability to build and scale advisory support functions; not just maintain them
Strong people leader who can navigate complex team dynamics and earn credibility fast
Strategic thinker who can set ambitious, meaningful goals across multiple teams simultaneously
Executive presence, equally comfortable in a C-suite conversation, a team all-hands, and one-on-one coaching
High EQ and the ability to hit the ground running in an established, high-performing environment
Genuine enthusiasm for AI and technology as tools for transforming how advisory services are delivered
Comfortable operating with urgency in a fast-moving, entrepreneurial environment

Bonus Points

Experience at a growth-stage or tech-enabled RIA, or startup-adjacent environment
RIA coaching or advisor group leadership background
Background building or scaling lead generation or insurance service lines
