SONIA EDWARDS
Division director
Investors Group Financial Services
In a profession where long work days are par for the course, finding the time for anything else outside of the office is a challenge. And yet Sonia Edwards still makes time to mentor younger consultants at the Investors Group’s Campbell River office. Such dedication has allowed Edwards to rapidly rise through the ranks at Investors Group, becoming a divisional director within her first three years with the company.
Edwards came to the industry following a media career, working at the Jasper Booster newspaper before stints in marketing with One Net Marketing and Rodgers’ Chocolates. She switched gears in 2013, joining Investors Group as a consultant and field trainer. In her current role as a division director, she oversees the recruitment, training and development of the firm’s new batch of consultants, and her success has won her the accolade of Investors Group’s Financial Planner of the Year for the region.
