- Promote a collaborative culture that supports disciplined decision-making, clear ownership, and practical execution.
- Draft, update, and maintain advisor-facing product materials, FAQs, intranet content, product guides, share class and product-availability talking points, and internal reference resources.
- Support webinars, training sessions, thematic campaigns, launch communications, and ongoing education designed to improve advisor understanding of mutual fund, ETF, ETP, and UIT use cases, trading characteristics, and limitations.
- Translate mutual fund, ETF, ETP, and UIT product concepts into clear, practical language for financial professionals, field leaders, sales partners, and non-investment-oriented stakeholders.
- Education Requirements: Bachelor’s degree preferred; equivalent experience considered. FINRA Series 7 license strongly preferred.

- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, including the ability to review product details, adoption data, share class and fee considerations, operational impacts, and market information to identify themes and recommended actions.
- Strong project management and organization skills with the ability to manage multiple workstreams, deadlines, stakeholders, and open items.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain product, platform, and trading concepts clearly and professionally.
- Proficiency with Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint, with the ability to prepare clean reports, presentations, trackers, and decision-support materials.
- Ability to work collaboratively across Product Management, Due Diligence, Compliance, Supervision, Trading, Operations, Product Systems, Technology, Marketing, Sales, Recruiting, sponsors, and vendors.
