Wealth Management Advisor Jobs in Colorado: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a wealth management advisor in Colorado?
To work as a wealth management advisor in Colorado, you must register as an Investment Adviser Representative through the Colorado Division of Securities, which requires passing either the FINRA Series 65 exam or the Series 7 plus Series 66 exams. Most Colorado employers expect a bachelor's degree in finance, economics, or business. Earning the CFP designation strengthens your standing with larger firms and independent RIAs operating across the state.
How much do wealth management advisors make in Colorado?
Wealth management advisors 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 wealth management advisors in Colorado?
Employers hiring wealth management advisors in Colorado right now include First Western Trust, JPMorganChase, and PNC Financial Services, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Colorado's strong base of independent registered investment advisory firms and the regional headquarters of national brokerages in the Denver metro make the state one of the more active hiring markets in the mountain west.
Which Colorado cities have the most wealth management advisor jobs?
Denver, Cherry Creek, and Lakewood have the most wealth management advisor openings in Colorado. Denver's density of corporate headquarters, financial services firms, and Charles Schwab's major campus drives the majority of postings, while Boulder attracts independent RIAs serving the tech and startup community, and Colorado Springs supports a steady demand tied to its large military and federal workforce seeking retirement planning guidance.
Are there remote wealth management advisor jobs in Colorado?
Yes, but they're less common than in purely analytical finance roles because wealth management advisors rely heavily on ongoing client relationships that most firms prefer to manage in person. About 0% of wealth management advisor openings tied to Colorado are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, though this varies by employer. Financial planning work, portfolio review, and client reporting tasks are the functions most likely to be performed remotely when flexibility is offered.
How can I get hired as a wealth management advisor in Colorado with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is a client associate or financial planning associate role at a Colorado-based RIA or a regional branch of a national firm, where you support senior advisors while building toward your own book. Charles Schwab's Denver campus and Fidelity's Colorado offices both run structured new-professional programs. Earning your Series 65 license before applying and completing an internship with a Colorado fee-only RIA gives candidates a clear edge over others without a client-facing background.
Where can I find and apply to wealth management advisor jobs in Colorado?
