Since 2017, Flourish has been on a mission to help financial advisors evolve from holistic advice to holistic implementation to more fully serve their clients and achieve better outcomes. We focus on independent Registered Investment Advisors (RIAs), delivering financial products that advisors can’t easily access today through beautiful, scalable, and easy-to-use technology.
Today, we work with over 900 RIAs that collectively represent more than $1.6T in assets under management across two products — Flourish Annuities and Flourish Cash — and with our recent acquisition of Sora Finance, we’ll be adding a lending offering in 2026. Headquartered in New York City, we are an independently-operating, wholly-owned subsidiary of MassMutual Life Insurance Company.

About You
You are detail oriented with focus on accuracy and integrity as you work with and present data. You have sound judgment in determining when to prioritize speed versus quality. You work hard to first understand the root problem that your customers are trying to solve when they ask for data or analysis and you have the experience and technical skills to devise effective, scalable solutions to meet their needs in a timely manner.
You strive for clarity and consistency in communicating with others, avoiding unnecessary jargon, acronyms, etc. You have the ability to develop expert-level knowledge in multiple areas of a business and to discuss these topics with other experts and non-experts alike.
