Job Description:
AssetMark is a leading strategic provider of innovative investment and consulting solutions serving independent financial Advisors. We provide investment, relationship and practice management solutions that Advisors use in helping clients achieve wealth, independence and purpose. Our mission is to empower Advisors to create awesome investment solutions and experiences for their clients. Our teams and leadership approach every interaction and decision with our Core values - heart, integrity, excellence and respect.
AssetMark's open architecture and ability to serve independent Advisors means we work not only with our own custodian, AssetMark Trust, but also have partnerships with three third-party custodians - Fidelity, Pershing, and Schwab. We refer to these firms as Partner Custodians (PC). Advisors may choose to work with one of these custodians and lean on AssetMark for full operational and service support.
All client-directed PC requests flow through AssetMark and the PC Team. Our PC Teams work with the custodians to define processes, procedures, implement improvements, and resolve outstanding issues for these requests. Our goal is to create a seamless experience for clients regardless of which custodian they choose to work with, and to limit as many hand-offs or rework as possible. AssetMark still leads and owns the Advisor relationship and is the "go to" party for questions and guidance. Managing this unique relationship takes strong technical skills, exemplary communications skills, and an understanding of the "AssetMark way" when it comes to service delivery.
Position Summary
Opening and funding a new account on the AssetMark platform is a significant milestone and an important 'moment of truth' for any Advisor and Client. The onboarding experience must be easy, seamless, and best in class across the industry. Our Partner Custodian Team strives to be experts in getting accounts opened and invested, and aims to provide comprehensive, timely, accurate and reliable execution every time.
As an integral part of the Partner Custodian Team, a Parnter Custodian Case Manager (PC CM) ensures the new account opening and funding process goes seamlessly.

A PCCM is expected to take a proactive lead on any case they own to ensure creating a top notch new account experience for our Clients is their #1 priority. A PCCM is emotionally connected to our purpose, Values and Clients... and is 100% accountable for the outcomes for the Client and their new account, regardless of which internal teams and partners contribute to the overall process.
A PCCM is expected to execute according to key performance measures - including Platinum, Gold and New Advisor NPS loyalty scores, accuracy, productivity, service level adherence, contact quality and call containment, and on-time delivery of improvement initiatives prioritized from Customer Experience and business impact.
