Wessel Investment Counsel, LLC is a small, fee-only registered investment advisor located in Asheville, NC. as such, we are seeking an additional advisor who has already established at least some base of clients. This opportunity may be of interest to those who:

* currently work as a registered representative for a wirehouse, but have grown weary of the conflicts that are inherent marketing commission-based financial products.
* have attempted or considered establishing an independent RIA, but who prefer to join an established team that can provide a professional environment and a quality infrastructure.
* already work within a fee-only environment with some other established RIA, but wish to relocate to Asheville, NC without having to establish practice from scratch.

The more attributes you possess from the following list, the more excited we�ll be to hear from you:

* College Degree: Although we�d naturally prefer that you have a degree in some business-related field, we fully recognize that many talented people possess degrees that are not business related.

The more advanced your degree, the better, but we especially prize intellect, attitude, and the ability to communicate well which includes the ability to write well.

* Professional Certification
While we don�t require any particular certification per se, your success as an advisor is likely to be related to the amount of credibility you establish with your clients. Consequently, having some well regarded professional certification in some business-related capacity (or successfully working toward one) demonstrates your commitment to the profession.

Of course, you must also have a clean compliance record and be drug-free. A good sense of humor would also be a plus.

In addition to the fact that you will be working in an environment where the focus is on rendering objective, professional advice rather than canned sales presentations, we will support you in the following ways:

* Fully furnished, paperless office with all necessary computer equipment and software,

* Independent research from Morningstar, Standard & Poors, Value Line, and Zacks,

* Weekly research review process to guide you in making portfolio adjustments,

* Sophisticated trading platform provided through Pershing, LLC,
