Senior Advisor

Job Summary:

In LA, you have numerous wealth management firms to choose from. We're quite different from most of them.

Since we established Westmount in 1990, our vision has been clear. Be an incubator for innovative thinking. Offer fee-only client relationships, alternative investments, leading-edge financial planning. Be about ethics. Set the firm up to eliminate conflicts of interest and do what's best for clients.

There's something else. Be a magnet for the top young talent in wealth management. Harness their energy. Develop them thoughfully. Give them the freedom to pursue fresh new ideas on behalf of clients. That mindset has allowed us to assemble one of LA's sharpest, most dynamic advisory teams.

Ultimately, our goal is to be LA's "go to" firm. So far, so good. Our clients represent a broad cross-section of the city's most successful folks. Our star-studded team continues to grow.

If what we're about speaks to you, we should talk.
