Job Summary:
We are seeking an experienced and highly motivated Private Banker to join our dynamic Wealth at Work team, specializing in the Technology and Healthcare sectors.

This role is crucial for candidates who possess a deep understanding of wealth creation and liquidity events, including comprehensive knowledge of capital tables, and an established network within the Tech and Healthcare ecosystems.

The ideal candidate will be a recognized thought leader, possessing deep subject matter expertise in managing concentrated stock positions, private stock, and other sophisticated banking and lending products specifically tailored for clients in these industries.

This includes actively targeting individuals involved in wealth creation and liquidity events such as IPOs, M&A, significant funding rounds, and other transformational financial milestones.
Strategic Advisory & Thought Leadership: Serve as a thought leader and subject matter expert for clients with complex financial needs, particularly those involving concentrated stock positions, private stock holdings, and sophisticated banking and lending solutions pertinent to the Tech and Healthcare sectors. Provide strategic guidance and innovative solutions to help clients navigate liquidity events, understand the intricacies of capital tables, and manage their wealth effectively.
Established Network & Ecosystem Engagement: Leverage an existing, robust network within the Technology and Healthcare venture capital, private equity, startup, and corporate executive communities to generate qualified referrals and proprietary new business opportunities. Actively engage with key influencers and participate in industry events.
Client Relationship Management: Serve as a trusted advisor to clients, understanding their complex financial needs, goals, and risk tolerance to provide tailored wealth management solutions that go beyond traditional retirement planning.
