Financial Advisory Associate: Fresh Grad / Student (AAG x AIA Financial Advisers)

What this actually is

A financial advisory career where you build a client practice from scratch: helping young professionals in Singapore make smarter decisions about their money, protection, and investments.

This is not a call centre role. This is not back-office work. You'll be having real conversations with real people about real financial decisions and getting paid based on the value you create.

We'll be honest with you: Year 1 is hard. You're building from zero. But the structure is different from most careers income compounds, clients refer, and the ceiling is yours to set.

Who we're looking for

You don't need a finance degree. You need:

• Genuine curiosity about people and what drives their decisions
• Comfort with ambiguity and learning on the job
• Self-discipline: this is a practice you build, not a job you're handed
• Willingness to have honest conversations (including difficult ones)

Fresh grads, final-year students, and mid-career switchers welcome. NTU / NUS / SMU backgrounds common in our team but not required.

What the first year looks like (honest version)

Month 1–3: Trial apprenticeship. Shadow client meetings, learn the planning framework, handle real service requests with supervision. Pass criteria are clear and documented: no guesswork.

Compensation structure is transparent and performance-linked, we'll walk you through the full breakdown in our first conversation. No hidden catches.

After the trial: Commission structure scales progressively as your practice grows. No ceiling. No politics blocking your progress.

What we don't do

Motivational fluff or income screenshot culture

Fake it till you make it training

Pressure tactics on clients or recruits

Hustle-grind aesthetics

What you'll get

• Structured 3-month trial with clear pass criteria
• AI-assisted practice management (you'll see how we actually use AI to run a modern advisory practice)
• Access to AAG's 900+ advisor community and cross-agency training
• MAS licensing support (M9, M9A, HI, RES5)
• A mentor who is actively producing, not just managing
