Toler Financial Group, a small independent wealth management and financial planning firm, is seeking an experienced investment professional to assist us in our mission of helping clients achieve their financial goals. We serve our community as independent fiduciaries with client-centered financial planning and investment services.

Our investment approach includes a strong commitment to sustainable investing and helping our clients express their values through their financial choices. We are a diverse and close-knit team culture, working together for the smooth functioning of our organization and for the financial success of our clients.

Toler Financial Group was formed to provide financial services to communities that are typically outsiders in the financial industry, including women, progressives, people of color and LGBTQ+. If this perspective speaks to you, this is your opportunity to use and grow your talents within a key role in our fast-growing organization.

Overview
