A series of IFA careers forums will be taking place in different locations around the UK over the next few months.

The Fidelity FundsNetwork Platform for Learning and the Financial Services Skills Council will host the events.

It aims to support the development of job profiles by identifying the main roles within the advice sector, the entry routes and the necessary skills and qualification requirements.

Sara Powell, head of training and professional development, for the FundsNetwork Platform for Learning, said: "The FundsNetwork Platform for Learning is working with the FSSC to find solutions. While we have a long way to go, we believe that hosting the IFA Careers Forum is a significant step in the right direction."
