Financial Advisor Jobs in Missouri: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a financial advisor in Missouri?

To become a financial advisor in Missouri, you must pass the FINRA Series 7 (General Securities Representative) exam and the Series 66 (Uniform Combined State Law) exam, then register with the Missouri Securities Division through a sponsoring broker-dealer or as an investment adviser representative. Most employers require at least a bachelor's degree in finance, business, or economics. Earning the CFP designation significantly strengthens your candidacy with Missouri wealth management and independent planning firms.

Which companies hire financial advisors in Missouri?

Companies currently hiring financial advisors in Missouri include Northwestern Mutual, Synergy Wealth Solutions, and Bank of America, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Missouri's concentration of major financial services headquarters, including Edward Jones and Stifel Financial in St. Louis, means the state has a deeper bench of established local employers than most markets its size.

Which Missouri cities have the most financial advisor jobs?

St. Louis, Chesterfield, and Clayton account for the greatest concentration of financial advisor openings in Missouri. St. Louis dominates because it is home to several national financial services headquarters, while Kansas City's large corporate base and growing wealth management sector generate steady demand, and Springfield serves as a regional hub for independent advisory practices and insurance-linked planning firms across southwest Missouri.

Are there remote financial advisor jobs in Missouri?

Yes, but they are less common than in purely desk-based fields, since financial advising often involves in-person client meetings and relationship-building. About 25% of financial advisor openings tied to Missouri are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, and those positions tend to concentrate in salaried financial planning analyst roles or support functions rather than client-facing advisor seats.

How can I get hired as a financial advisor in Missouri with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is through a financial advisor associate or client associate program at a large Missouri firm. Edward Jones, headquartered in St. Louis, runs a structured new financial advisor program that accepts candidates without prior advisory experience and sponsors FINRA licensing. Stifel and Commerce Bank also hire financial planning associates into supervised roles. Candidates coming from banking, insurance, or accounting backgrounds hold a clear lateral advantage, and beginning the CFP coursework before applying signals long-term commitment to hiring managers.

Where can I find and apply to financial advisor jobs in Missouri?

You can find and apply to financial advisor jobs in Missouri on Migrate Mate, which lists current Missouri openings from employers across the state. Search the roles available, identify the ones that match your experience and licensing status, and apply directly to each one that fits your background.
