About Welleness

Advice that finally works for women

Welleness was founded by women who saw how often we're underserved by traditional financial advice. Talked over, talked down to, or simply not reached at all.

We're here to change that. Women come to Welleness for a free financial health check and use Elle, our AI assistant, to make sense of their money. When they're ready for advice, we introduce them to an adviser who understands the realities of balancing work, family and everything in between.

The role

What you'll be doing

You'll give holistic, independent advice to Welleness clients across pensions, investments, protection and retirement planning. Many will be new to advice, so your patience and plain English matter as much as your technical knowledge.

It's a self-employed role. You set your hours and working pattern, with compliance support behind you.

Running fact-finds and needs analysis, with care for clients who are new to advice or unsure of the process

Researching and recommending suitable products and strategies across pensions, investments and protection

Producing accurate, compliant suitability reports

Delivering ongoing reviews so your advice stays suitable as clients' lives change

Keeping your pipeline and CRM records up to date

Staying on top of CPD, regulatory changes and new products, and maintaining your Statement of Professional Standing

Why Welleness

Do the work you love, your way

We're building a home for female advisers who want flexibility, meaningful work and colleagues who understand. Here's what that means for you.

Flexibility that's built in

School runs, part-time weeks and non-traditional hours all work here. You decide how much you take on, and you can change that as your life changes.

A steady flow of clients

Introductions to women who have done a free financial health check and chosen to get advice. You're free to bring and service your own client bank too.

Start from her picture

Clients share their situation with Elle, our AI assistant, before they reach you, so your first meeting gets straight to what matters.

Support so you can advise

Compliance and admin support, so more of your time goes on advising and less on paperwork.

Colleagues who get it

Advice can be a lonely job when you work for yourself. Here you're part of a group of female advisers who share cases, swap ideas and back each other up.

Work that matters

Help women who are often left out of financial advice, with a competitive commission structure that rewards the work you do.

Who we're looking for

Is this you?

If most of these sound like you, we'd love to hear from you.

You hold the Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning (Level 4 minimum) and have IFA experience, ideally having held CAS

You're self-motivated and happy managing your own client relationships

You explain things clearly, especially to clients approaching advice for the first time
