At St. James’s Place Financial Adviser Academy, we believe that the advice sector has careers to offer everyone. 

The demand for trusted advice in the UK is stronger than ever driven by increasing wealth and a population who are living longer.  However, financial advisers are also getting older with an average age of 58!  This means many will be nearing retirement leaving a predicted shortfall of 50,000 advisers over the next decade.  In short, there has never been a better time to become a financial adviser.

Even if you have never thought about a career in financial advice, it is never too late to start. The St. James’s Place Academy provides an award-winning, first-of-its-kind pathway to the training, qualifications and certification required to gain employment, or self-employment within the financial advice sector. 

We are dedicated to training the new generation of financial advisers and are keen to create a network of authentic and ambitious individuals to ensure that the sector remains flourishing, successful and client focused.  We also have no doubt that the adviser and client of tomorrow will look very different from those of today, so we want you to help us shape the future of a dynamic sector.

We're looking for people who are ambitious, hard-working and motivated to help others, and to help themselves to build a career they can be proud of.
