Join Salinas Financial Group, a growing District within Northwestern Mutual, if you're looking to transition your pharma or medical expertise into the financial services industry, now is the perfect time to make the move.

Why?

This career shift offers an opportunity to make a meaningful impact by helping individuals navigate crucial life stages, whether it’s planning for college, retirement, or managing medical expenses, all while positively influencing their financial well-being. The financial services sector also presents unlimited growth potential—each stage of life presents new financial planning needs, and your ambition and dedication will determine just how far you can go in this rewarding career. By transitioning into financial services, you can contribute your skills to building long-term relationships and achieving meaningful outcomes for your clients.
