Culture and Careers

Our Culture

Our culture is centered around what we call The Accel Way. The Accel Way is our ‘motto’ of sorts and represents who we are as an organization and what we strive for every day. It is centered around our mission, vision, values, and ten organizational competencies. Collectively, these four items provide the foundation for the agency’s success and each employee’s success. We are committed to The Accel Way in everything we do, and all employees are expected to embrace and adhere to it throughout their employment with us.

Our Careers

Accel Wealth Management supports a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace. We want each and every one of our employees to feel valued, respected, and free to be who they are at work. We are committed to embracing our differences and providing a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment for all.

We are also proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to making employment decisions based on capability and performance, regardless of age, disability, genetic information, national origin, pregnancy, race, color, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, or any other classifications protected by law.
