The Team

Currently there are only 28 RBCs across the nation at Fidelity - a highly specialized role. Each RBC covers an assigned territory, partnering either with large call centers or with a region’s network of local investor centers or both. RBCs support financial advisors by onboarding new self-directed clients, while also helping to retain and develop existing clientele. Each supported Fidelity advisor maintains a book of roughly 400-500 households and thus relies on the RBC to add value to clients that express interest in individual securities especially when trading/investing with a competitor.

Fidelity’s Onsite Working Model
Fidelity is transitioning to a full-time onsite working model through a phased rollout across regions and roles. Currently, some roles and locations require 100% onsite presence, while others require less. Onsite expectations are likely to evolve as the rollout continues. This transition does not apply to fully remote roles.
