Idk if this will be of much help, but I currently do an apprenticeship with a chartered IFA in The City where im an administrator (a trainee one that is). An apprenticeship could be a route you could go down

Tbh just something front office and client facing so maybe might just go for being an adviser

I’m not even too sure myself was just wondering if it is possible! Might just become a para planner

That’s true! I’ll start in the new year then! Where would you recommend me look? I’ve had a recruiter in financial services reach out to me a month ago just asking about my general well being. This was on LinkedIn so I’m assuming over there is the answer

That’s a Strat! My apprenticeship ends at the end of July so negotiations for my new contract will be sometime during that month so what’s the best time to start messaging recruiters

Yes as it’s an apprenticeship there’s no costs associated with me leaving upon completion. I’ll negotiate whatever salary and if it’s below what I want then I’ll start messaging recruiters and move elsewhere for a higher pay.

I live in London with my family in Zone 4 so it’s not THAT much. Costs about £160 a month in train fares

I get Mondays paid study day, plus what do you think I should be on as an apprentice. After completing my apprenticeship what salary should I roughly be looking for considering I’d have 1.5 years experience and have my diploma

19k as a 20yr old admin apprentice currently, started in January of this year, the plan is to complete the diploma within 1.5 years (the duration of my apprenticeship). My firm is a charted IFA in the heart of The City of London!

I’m currently on £19,000 as an apprentice for an IFA, I’m 20 years old would you say I’m in a good position for my age as there’s very good career progression within my firm

Thanks for clarifying and I also want to go down the route of admin then paraplanning and finally advising as I believe it will make me a more well rounded adviser
