Edward Jones is unlike any other investment firm. We believe that everything from our client-focused guiding principles, business philosophy and model, 33,000+ dedicated associates, and our more than 10,000 branch offices throughout the U.S. and through our affiliates in Canada and the U.K make us unique. We are a leader in the financial services industry, yet we take a personal approach to business that starts with a face-to-face meeting between a Financial Advisor and an individual investor.

Every aspect of our business – from the location of our offices to the investments and services we offer – is aligned to help us better understand and meet our clients’ unique needs. We strive to best serve our clients while providing our associates with the tools and resources they need to achieve more in their careers and lives. As the largest financial services firm to maintain a partnership structure, everyone feels a shared sense of purpose and accomplishment, and all full-time associates (whether they work at our headquarters or a branch office) have the opportunity to earn ownership in the firm. Edward Jones has been named to FORTUNE magazine’s “100 Best Companies to Work For” list nine times with six top 10 finishes, including the No. 2 ranking in 2009.

We wouldn't be the firm we are today if it wasn't for the uniqueness of our associates. We believe that an inclusive group of associates is the best way to serve the varied and individual needs of our customers.

At Edward Jones, we refer to our diversity initiatives as inclusion. This represents more than a simple wording change. "Diversity" is a way for us to recognize our differences. "Inclusion" provides direction on how these unique points of view can be understood and used for the good of the firm and our associates.

Our inclusion initiative is instrumental in fostering an environment that encourages new and innovative thinking, and acknowledges the positive contributions individuals from diverse backgrounds can make in the success of the firm. We remain committed to attracting and developing an outstanding team of associates, and supporting each one to achieve his or her full potential.
