Wealth Management Advisor Jobs in Tennessee: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a wealth management advisor in Tennessee?
Becoming a wealth management advisor in Tennessee requires passing FINRA-administered securities exams, most commonly the Series 65 or the Series 66 paired with a Series 7, before registering as an investment adviser representative with the Tennessee Department of Commerce and Insurance. Most employers require a bachelor's degree in finance, economics, or business. Earning a Certified Financial Planner credential strengthens candidacy considerably with Tennessee firms and independent registered investment advisers.
How much do wealth management advisors make in Tennessee?
Wealth management advisors in Tennessee earn a median of about $84,160 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $44,170 for the lowest 10% to over $406,200 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire wealth management advisors in Tennessee?
Employers hiring wealth management advisors in Tennessee right now include Regions Financial, Truist, and U.S. Bank, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Tennessee's concentration of community banks, regional broker-dealers, and independent registered investment adviser firms means hiring is distributed across the state rather than limited to a single dominant employer.
Which Tennessee cities have the most wealth management advisor jobs?
Nashville, Memphis, and Germantown have the most wealth management advisor openings in Tennessee. Nashville drives the largest share of demand as the state's financial and corporate headquarters hub, while Memphis supports a strong concentration of private banking and trust services activity, and Knoxville reflects demand from the region's growing base of independent advisory practices serving East Tennessee clients.
Are there remote wealth management advisor jobs in Tennessee?
Yes, but they're less common than in purely analytical finance roles, since client-facing advisory work often involves in-person relationship building. About 33% of wealth management advisor openings tied to Tennessee are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, with remote arrangements most frequently available for experienced advisors handling established client books rather than for roles focused on new client acquisition.
How can I get hired as a wealth management advisor in Tennessee with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying for a client associate or financial planning associate role at a Tennessee-based registered investment adviser or regional broker-dealer, where you support senior advisors while working toward your Series 65 license. First Horizon and regional Raymond James branches in Nashville and Memphis run associate advisor development programs for candidates without a full book of business. Completing your CFP coursework and passing your FINRA exams before applying gives you a clear edge over candidates still in progress.
Where can I find and apply to wealth management advisor jobs in Tennessee?
You can find and apply to wealth management advisor jobs in Tennessee on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings across the state. Search the available roles, identify the ones that match your experience and target market, and apply directly to the employers posting them.
