Become a financial professional

Make a difference every day

After working hard in other ventures, isn’t it time to build something for yourself? Apply your knowledge, skills and the network you’ve built to something you can own.

Financial professional careers provide what many people look for in a profession:

  • Impact: Bring fulfillment to clients’ lives through thoughtful and thorough financial services.
  • Independence: More flexibility allows the life balance many people want today.
  • Income: Experienced financial professionals have unlimited earning potential.

Once you begin working with one of our independent firms, you’ll build a business that makes a difference by helping individuals, families and businesses set and achieve their financial goals.

You'll have the support of colleagues and mentors, but you also get the support of Securian Financial, a nationwide financial services company. As a financial professional in the Securian Financial Network, you will:

  • Provide financial solutions through insurance and investment products from Securian Financial including securities and investment advisory services through Securian Financial Services, Inc., member FINRA/SIPC, the broker-dealer, as well as other companies, depending on what’s best for your clients.

How you’ll get paid

Securian Financial  compensates and recognizes 

you for the financial services you provide. This gives you a direct incentive to grow your business — without a mandate to sell a particular product or service. It also allows you to find the financial solutions that meet your clients' various needs.


During your first six months, you will earn compensation and commissions for completing specific activities. As your practice grows, commission-based compensation increases and our financial support decreases.

Benefits, retirement and recognition programs add to your overall compensation.

I love the freedom that this career has allowed me and my family. We get to travel more, we get to do more as a family. I can support my family, I believe, better than I could have in a prior career.

Financial professional since 1995

The best part of what I like doing is meeting with my clients, getting to know their story, getting to know about their family, and about how they’ve come to be.

Sarah

Financial professional since 1998

This kind of stuff is really hard for a lot of people to understand. So, if I can bring the simplicity to it, to my clients, that’s what I try to do. And also try to develop a good relationship with them so that they know I care.
