Outsource Financial Advisors

What is a financial advisor?

A financial advisor is responsible for providing financial advice or guidance to organisations across a variety of areas. They can advise businesses on services such as investment management, tax planning, portfolio management and insurance products. Essentially, they are a companies ‘one-stop-shop’ for all matters financial.

A financial advisor’s duties and tasks can include:

Providing financial planning advice to organisations

Preparing, validating and checking the accuracy of financial plans

Offer subject matter expertise and advice to the business

Assisting companies in managing finances and advising on investment planning to help meet their financial objectives.

These advisory tasks are particularly well-suited to being outsourced as they are repetitive and rules-based, requiring a high level of attention to detail. By sending these finance tasks to an outsourced financial advisor, organisations can free up their local finance teams time to focus on performing value-add, revenue generating work.

Financial advisors and planners are one and the same; a financial advisor is a broader term used to encompass investments and portfolio management. They both help companies create programs and plan to meet long-term financial goals. To do this effectively, there are specific and key skills financial advisors require.

Outsourcing providers recruit financial advisors the same way an internal, talent acquisition team would. Essentially, they ask the same questions to understand whether these offshore candidates would be able to provide the level of quality required by Australian organisations:

What experience and knowledge do you have interpreting complex financial data and reports and explaining your findings to stakeholders in a simpler way?
What are your negotiation and influencing skills like?
How do you ensure excellent communication and uphold customer service while taking into account client confidentiality?
What active listening techniques do you use to ensure you collect all relevant information pertaining to future financial plans?
Provide an example of how you showcased a high level of accuracy and attention to detail.
What financial planning systems are you familiar with?

In terms of qualifications, a higher education degree or certificate in accountancy, business management or financial studies is desirable. Financial advisors require high level numeracy skills and IT knowledge as they are constantly interpreting financial data. Previous customer service experience within a financial institution is preferred due to the transferable knowledge accumulated in these roles.
