Regional Director

Western Expansion — West Coast (CA, OR, WA) or Southwest (AZ, CO, NV, NM, UT)
At Janney, we believe exceptional advice begins with exceptional people. As a 194-year-old award-winning, full-service wealth management firm, we're committed to being the most trusted partner for our clients — and the employer where talented professionals build meaningful, long-term careers.
As part of a deliberate strategy to expand our footprint, we're looking for an entrepreneurial Regional Director to join the senior leadership team of our Private Client Group. This is a high-visibility executive role: you won't just run a region, you'll build it — establishing Janney's presence in new markets, recruiting the advisor talent to fill it, and standing up the branch leadership bench to sustain it.
If you're motivated by whitespace more than by maintenance — by the challenge of building exceptional teams from scratch, winning top advisor talent to a growing platform, and putting your own stamp on a region — we'd like to talk.

The Opportunity: Build the West

Reporting directly to the President of the Private Client Group, the Regional Director will lead Janney's expansion into new West Coast or Southwest markets, with a mandate to build — not simply oversee. Core priorities include:

Building the market. Establish Janney's presence in targeted new geographies across the region, market by market.
Building the advisor base. Recruit and onboard exceptional Financial Advisors to a firm and region on the rise.
Building the leadership bench. Identify, hire, and develop branch leaders where infrastructure is still being formed.
Building the growth engine. Accelerate organic growth and advisor productivity as the region scales.
Building the culture. Instill an advisor-centric, entrepreneurial culture from day one across every new office.

As a member of the PCG senior leadership team, you'll help shape the firm's future while partnering closely with Executive Leadership and corporate partners to execute the initiatives that make this expansion succeed.

What You'll Build

Build High-Performing Teams

Recruit, inspire, and develop branch leaders into exceptional leaders — in many cases, building that leadership layer from scratch.
Establish a collaborative, entrepreneurial culture that reflects Janney's boutique approach in every new market you enter.
Build accountability through coaching, performance management, and leadership development.

Drive Growth in New Markets

Design and execute the strategy to expand Janney's presence in new geographic markets across the designated region.
