This approach enables us to provide deeper and more meaningful value in our role as a trusted advisor.We're looking for curious team members who share our values (see below) to join the team

A perk we like to highlight is work life balance.
We recognize this is an industry with a reputation for spending long hours at the office, and we try to do things a little differently.
Firstly, we encourage our team to work from where they work best, whether that be at home or in our Chicago office.
While we may request in office meetings from time to time, we encourage our team to control where and how they work.
Additionally, we strive to provide each team member with a reasonable workload. Based on internal surveys, during the off-season, employees typically work an average 40 hours per week.We recognize that balance shifts during busy seasons, and while dedication is crucial, we strive to maintain a healthy equilibrium.
Even during peak periods, employees typically average 50-55 hours per week.We believe that a harmonious work-life balance not only enhances individual satisfaction but also contributes to a thriving and motivated workforce.
Other perks include:
This position is for immediate hire, paid commensurate with the candidate's experience. Our target range for the role is 75k-100k.
