Job Summary: |
Mercer Advisors is a people business and our advisors are the people. When an advisor has a great day clients feel it. When an advisor spends that day on 20 clicks per task status calls and workarounds clients feel that too. Were rebuilding how our Platform organization works and we need someone who owns the advisor experience end to end. This is not a feature-owner role. This is the person who defines what a great day looks like for a Mercer Advisors advisor then builds the roadmap the partnerships and the discipline to deliver it. Aspen is the backbone of how advisors work and its also where we hear the most friction: too many steps unclear handoffs and not enough lift in productivity or telemetry. Youll own two roadmaps. One is a joint roadmap with Avantos our Aspen platform partner. The other is the Mercer Advisors-specific roadmap for what makes us different. Youll report to the Chief Platform Officer work side by side with a named business lead from problem definition through launch and be the single point of accountability for whether advisors get time back to spend with clients. |

Reduce clicks and handoffs on routine advisor tasks starting with the highest-volume actions. Work with the Platform teams across Aspen Client Portal Relationship Expansion and Investment Platform so advisors get one consistent experience across Aspen Salesforce Orion and Box. OUTCOMES AND DATA Make Advisor NPS real: define it measure it and explain what moves it. Lead the squad in measuring success through a shared set of client and advisor outcomes such as client touchpoints referrals action plan coverage advisor capacity and productivity and team retention baselined within 90 days and live on a dashboard. Require an impact hypothesis before every build and a measurement plan before every launch. Follow through to adoption then look back and learn. BUSINESS PARTNERSHIP Work as one team with the business not a handoff model. Spend real time with advisors relationship managers and clients go to the meetings where the work happens.
