Thrivent plans to hire nearly 600 new financial advisors in 2025 for roles in a range of advisory models with a focus on expanding and strengthening advisor teams.
The Fortune 500 financial services company’s goal is to increase its financial advisor ranks by 2% this year, which would far outpace the industry’s average growth rate of 0.3 for the past decade.
“We help our financial advisors build deeply purposeful and financially rewarding careers,” said Nick Cecere, executive vice president and chief distribution officer at Thrivent. “Advisors stay with Thrivent longer than other financial services companies – twice the industry average – because we give them the tools, support, and collaborative culture they need to succeed.”
Thrivent said in a news release that its model is unique and gives advisors the flexibility and autonomy to build the practice of their choice through several optional paths. Advisors can operate their business from a local office or join a regional office where they would serve clients remotely nationwide.
Thrivent said it offers its financial advisors:
- Support and resources including in-house coaching, paid training, and competitive pay.
- A team-based approach that lets advisors join in a practice to grow their business and gain expertise.
- Access to the Thrivent Planning Platform – a digital system that lets advisors and clients “see their entire financial picture together on one screen.”
- A values-driven environment focused on purpose-based advice and helping clients see money as a tool, not a goal.
Thrivent said its planned expansion it timely because many financial advisors are nearing retirement while demand for financial advice is rising among younger generations. An estimated one-third of advisors are expected to retire over the next decade, while millions of Americans age 45 to 60 will be seeking financial guidance, Thrivent reported.
Thrivent said it is committed to helping advisors build a “deeply purposeful, financially rewarding career that means more.” Advisors who seek to make a positive impact in their communities will be drawn to Thrivent’s focus on purpose-based advice and amplifying the generosity of clients resonates, the company stated.
Thrivent raised and donated more than $331 million to communities nationwide in 2025. The company has been honored for 14 consecutive years as one of Ethisphere’s World’s Most Ethical Companies and last year was on Fast Company’s ‘Brands That Matter’ list.
