Training and Relationship Manager

As a result of continued national growth, Praemium is seeking a commercially minded Training & Relationship Manager to partner with private wealth and IFA advice practices across our market-leading platform suite. We are open to recruiting this role with a candidate located in either Sydney or Melbourne!

Working closely with the New Business Managers, this role is responsible for building trusted adviser relationships, driving platform adoption and delivering high-impact onboarding and enablement experiences.

This is not a traditional support role. The successful candidate will act as a strategic partner to advisers and practice teams, helping them embed Praemium’s solutions into their business, navigate complex onboarding and transition activity, and maximise long-term value from the platform.

Success in this role is defined by adviser confidence, platform adoption, advocacy, retention and long-term relationship growth, not transactional servicing.

You thrive in externally facing environments, enjoy influencing outcomes and know how to balance relationship management with strategic execution. You are comfortable engaging with advisers, principals and senior practice staff, and can confidently communicate both the value of technology and the commercial impact it can have on an advice business.

• Maintain accurate CRM and relationship management data to support strategic engagement.

• 3+ years’ recent experience in a client facing role within investment platforms, financial services, private wealth or a related environment.
• Demonstrated experience working with financial advisers across private wealth and retail/IFA markets.
• Strong presentation, stakeholder management and communication skills.
• Commercially minded with the ability to build trusted adviser relationships.
• Highly organised, self-directed and confident managing multiple priorities.
• Experience with investment platform technology, managed accounts or custody solutions highly regarded.

What We Offer

Please note: This role requires recent experience working directly with IFA and/or private wealth advisers within an investment platform, wealth management, financial advice or related environment. We are seeking candidates with a background in relationship management, onboarding and adviser enablement rather than roles primarily focused on sales or new business acquisition.
