Description of XYPN Sapphire
XYPN Sapphire is an SEC-registered investment advisor offering a comprehensive platform for independent, fee-only Financial Advisors. This offers a completely different model for members to operate their firms under, freeing them of compliance, investment, and other burdens of running their firms independently. XYPN Sapphire is a newer endeavor and offering of XYPN's, still in the pilot phase, and we're looking for someone eager to pull up their sleeves and jump on a rocket ship.
About the Position

We're looking for a rare balance of attention to detail and ability to build trust and relationships. Because this is a new offering at XYPN, we're looking for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, exciting environment who can adapt to change quickly.

- Serve as the main point of contact and project manager for advisors transitioning to XYPN Sapphire
- Create a personalized onboarding plan for each advisor, working to uncover their individual needs and ensuring we can meet them
- Send, track, and ensure completion of all advisor and client forms.
- Identify issues as they arise, dive deep into problem solving, and recommend solutions
- Work with our industry tech providers and platforms to ensure the advisor is set up for success with the tech stack
- Recommend, develop, and implement solutions to support continuous improvement of our onboarding and transition process: we'll always be iterating!
