Financial Planning Jobs in Colorado: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a financial planning professional in Colorado?

The most direct path is earning the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER (CFP) designation, which requires a qualifying bachelor's degree, completion of a CFP Board-registered education program, passage of the CFP exam, and relevant professional experience. Advisors who manage investments must also register as an Investment Adviser Representative with the Colorado Division of Securities and hold a Series 65 or Series 66 license before working with clients in a fee-based capacity.

How much do financial plannings make in Colorado?

Financial plannings in Colorado earn a median of about $89,280 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $57,020 for the lowest 10% to over $269,500 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire financial plannings in Colorado?

Companies currently hiring financial plannings in Colorado include Trace3, Loenbro, and Riveron, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Colorado's strong concentration of financial services headquarters and wealth management offices in the Denver metro means hiring tends to be consistent year-round rather than purely seasonal.

Which Colorado cities have the most financial planning jobs?

Denver, Lakewood, and Broomfield account for the largest share of financial planning openings in Colorado. Denver dominates because it is home to major financial services firms and corporate headquarters that employ large advisory teams, while Colorado Springs and Boulder attract openings through regional wealth management offices, credit unions, and the tech and defense sectors that generate a steady demand for personal financial guidance.

Are there remote financial planning jobs in Colorado?

Yes, and more than many client-facing fields, since financial planning increasingly supports remote client meetings and digital plan delivery. About 57% of financial planning openings tied to Colorado are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting how broadly firms have adopted virtual advisory models. Portfolio review, financial plan development, and ongoing client communication are the functions most commonly performed fully remote.

How can I get hired as a financial planning professional in Colorado with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry point is a paraplanner or financial planning associate role, which large Denver-area firms like Charles Schwab and TIAA regularly fill with recent graduates who hold or are pursuing CFP education coursework. Colorado's many registered investment advisory firms also hire associate advisers who support senior planners while building toward their Series 65 and CFP credentials. A completed CFP education program and any client-service or banking experience meaningfully strengthens an application even without full advisory experience.

Where can I find and apply to financial planning jobs in Colorado?

You can find and apply to financial planning jobs in Colorado on Migrate Mate, which lists current Colorado openings across firms of all sizes. Search the listings for roles that match your credentials and experience level, then apply directly to the ones that fit.
