About the Role

Savvy is seeking a detail-oriented operator to manage the process of moving newly signed advisors' client books onto Savvy's platform, ensuring a smooth and precise transition. This role is crucial for Savvy's growth and directly impacts the initial experience of new advisors.

Responsibilities

  • Own the end-to-end transition of assigned advisors’ books across custodians, from paperwork generation through completed account transfers.
  • Prepare, validate, and submit account paperwork with a low NIGO (not-in-good-order) rate, catching data issues before they cause delays.
  • Run data preparation and validation to ensure accuracy.
  • Act as the dedicated day-to-day point of contact for transitioning advisors, communicating proactively and keeping each transition on schedule.
  • Coordinate across custodians, vendors, and internal teams (Operations, Product, Client Servicing) to unblock transitions.
  • Balance multiple concurrent transitions while maintaining clear communication with stakeholders and staying adaptive in a rapidly evolving environment.
  • Monitor and report on transition progress and flag risk situations early.
  • Contribute to improving the team’s capabilities by enhancing existing processes and helping build scalable, automated workflows.

Requirements

  • 3 to 5+ years in a client operations, account transitions, onboarding, or account management role in wealth management.
  • Exceptional resourcefulness and a very quick learning curve — you can pick up new custodial platforms and tools on your own, fast.
  • Hands-on experience working across multiple custodians and a strong grasp of account transfer / onboarding paperwork.
  • Exceptional organization and attention to detail across many parallel, deadline-driven workstreams.
  • Strong data hygiene instincts — comfort with spreadsheets and validation logic, and the discipline to catch errors before they compound.
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills, with the empathy and confidence to keep advisors calm and informed under pressure.
  • A collaborative, low-ego, self-starter attitude with an incredible ownership mentality.
  • Tech-savvy and adept at quickly learning and adopting new technologies, including AI tools.
  • Comfort working in a high-growth, constantly changing environment.
  • Direct experience with Schwab and/or Fidelity custodial platforms.
  • Familiarity with ACAT transfers, LPOA/repaper processes, NIGO resolution, DocuSign, Orion, or Salesforce.
  • Comfort with Excel/Google Sheets at a power-user level (lookups, data validation, cleaning messy files).
  • Prior work experience at a high-growth startup or a custodian, RIA, and broker-dealer.
  • Experience using AI tools to accelerate data or document work (validation, drafting, summarization).
