If we were like everyone else, that would be average.
We're different.
We're unlike any company you’ve been a part of. We’re adventure-seekers, on a mission to serve people – to provide client and employee experiences that are unmatched!
Trip Highlights
Check out some highlights from our recent company trips!
Yearly Company Trips
We believe that with hard work, comes great reward, and that is the driving force behind our yearly company trips. If we all come together to achieve our yearly goal, we all travel together to relax and celebrate. Plus, not only is this company trip for our employees, but also for a plus one of their choosing.
Team Oriented Goals
In addition to our company goals, we also strive to exceed inter-department goals, as the success of the company is determined by the success of each department. Who knows, you might show up to work one day and end up jumping out of an airplane.
Personal Development
Not just a core value of SWD, but a building block to our success. We want you to never stop growing or developing professionally. To help achieve this, we believe in funding conferences, certifications, additional courses and training to help propel you forward.
Company Events
Whether it is at our year-end party, team-building exercises or a fun night after one of our Wine & Wisdom events, we believe that a team that works hard together, should play hard together.
Building an Experience
We believe that our culture is what truly sets us apart. When you work for Strategic Wealth Designers, you are a part of our family and everyday is a new experience in building toward the future, developing professionally and being a part of the community you live in.
We're just getting started. Join us as we continue to scale nationally, expand our partnerships, and build toward providing financial peace of mind to millions of retirees.
Ready for SWD?
We look at the world as an experience and have an unrelenting desire to be the best and to give our best. We hire adventure seekers, competitors, accurate and honest people. We wouldn’t exist without our financial clients, so we work to give them a world-class experience every day, in every city, every step of the way. To make this happen we look to hire positive and proactive critical thinkers seeking to be part of a team of tightly-knit people driven to achieve their goals. If you are looking to clock in at 8, leave at 5 and park yourself in a job for 20-30 years – you’re not for us. We are looking for those who see the world differently, who create the unknown and those who are always going to do what is right, not what is popular!
Backstory
CEO & Founder Matthew Dicken started Strategic Wealth Designers after leaving a big box financial services company in 2002. He grew tired of the financial services industry continually doing what was in the firm’s best interest instead of the client’s. He wanted to build a company that was honest, transparent and fun to work with and for.
To this day, Matthew talks with every employee before they are brought into the Strategic Wealth Designers family. His passion and energy for a world-class experience at every touchpoint of the client journey is what has contributed to the firm’s explosive growth. Named one of Inc. Magazine’s 5000 fastest growing private companies in the United States in 2020, Strategic Wealth Designers continues to expand across the country seeking out the absolute best employees each city has to offer.
What to Expect
Expect an experience! From Wine & Wisdom events at Cirque Du Solei shows, yacht excursions on the mighty Ohio River, to watching a porcupine meander through our event at the Denver aquarium, you just never know what experience the next client event will bring. And awesome experiences aren’t reserved solely for our clients. SWD employees have been treated to surprise skydiving excursions, high speed go-karting events, underground ziplining tours and box seats at an NBA basketball game. We enjoy competing in corporate sports challenges against other companies and epic yearly Christmas parties in cities across the country. Our culture is strong and we really like each other! So much so, that if we hit our company goal we go on a trip together celebrating the year’s accomplishments!
At Strategic Wealth Designers you can expect to work hard, but to feel an immense sense of purpose in what you do. Every employee is vital to the team’s success and each day, everyone can clearly see the value and importance they bring to the firm. Creativity is encouraged, and a team member at any level could be the one to provide the next huge advancement for the company- and we celebrate that!
