This is an excellent opportunity for someone already operating in the Private Client world, or supporting HNW, wealth, family office or private capital clients, who wants broader strategic responsibility and the chance to help shape a growing practice. The role offers a mix of relationship management, profile raising, client development and strategic planning rather than purely reactive pitch work.
