OFM launches academy

The scheme is designed for graduates with an entrepreneurial spirit who are looking for a career within Financial Services, and will provide a fantastic platform into an innovative and fast paced industry.

Graduates will immediately benefit from one to one guidance at OFM’s specialist training academy, completing a course that has been specially designed to provide the very best advice and information required to create highly successful mortgage advisors.

All graduates will initially be employed full time whilst they complete their induction programme, culminating in them gaining full authorisation from Personal Touch Financial Services to become a Mortgage and Protection advisor. OFM will continue their support helping suitable candidates to start their own business.

Andy Sewell, managing director said of the company’s latest project “It is a widely held view that the financial services industry would benefit from some new young blood. I believe it is the responsibility of companies such as OFM to support the future of our industry by assisting young, driven and entrepreneurial candidates get the foot hold they need to start there own businesses. Our commitment isn't just to teach the mechanics of an advisor's role but to share our knowledge and experience of starting a business from scratch while supplying the ongoing support services."
