About Potomac
Potomac is a Bethesda, Maryland asset manager, founded in 1987 and citing more than $5 billion under management and over 3,000 advisors served, and its sellers are wholesalers who place its tactical strategies, the Potomac Funds and its Union TAMP with financial advisors in the independent broker-dealer and RIA channel. The team is built on the standard pairing: an external wholesaler travels a territory for one-to-one and group meetings while an internal wholesaler in Bethesda works the same advisors by phone, and a sales associate makes high-volume outbound calls to set meetings for the field. Above them, a director of key accounts negotiates selling agreements and model or recommended-list placement with broker-dealer home offices, wirehouses and national TAMPs. Of the 9 sales openings on its board on 2 Nov 2026, three are external territories (Mid-Atlantic, Indiana and Illinois, and the Gulf Coast), two are the Bethesda inside seats, and four are senior hires made at once: a chief revenue officer over internal sales, external sales and revenue operations, a director of external sales, the key accounts director and a director of go-to-market operations who owns HubSpot and revenue reporting. The producing seats need the SIE, Series 7 and either the 63 and 65 or the 66: externals hold them at hire, the internal wholesaler may earn them on the job and the sales associate must pass within seven months.

Job seekers never pay to use this board. An Apply button opens the employer's own application page, or the page of the recruiting firm filling the seat; only where a company or its recruiting firm pays us for a hire who came from here does that link carry our referral code, and the fee comes from them, never out of the base or OTE the role offers you.
