RAMAX | FINANCIAL SERVICES SEARCH

Financial Services Recruiting. Built on Decades of Market Knowledge.

Ramax is a financial services search firm led by founder Peter Tannenbaum, whose recruiting career spans more than 30 years. From hedge funds, private equity and investment management to wealth advisory, banking and financial institutions, we understand the talent, leadership and operating demands that shape this industry.

WE KNOW FINANCIAL SERVICES. IT IS WHAT WE DO.

When you need a firm that actually knows this market, knows who is available, and knows who is not, that is the conversation we have.

Ramax Search focuses exclusively on financial services, drawing on more than three decades of recruiting experience from its founder. We partner with hedge funds, private equity and private credit firms, asset managers, banks and other investment businesses nationwide, as well as wealth managers and family offices. Our searches span investment, accounting and finance, legal, compliance, risk, operations, investor relations and technology, from individual contributors to C-suite leadership. Firms come to us for a trusted search partner who understands their business and the people they need.

If you are looking for someone to flood your inbox with twenty candidates, we are not your firm. If you want three or four people genuinely worth your time, let’s talk.

Considering your next move in financial services? Discuss the market, explore a new role or weigh an opportunity with someone who understands your field. Start a confidential career conversation with Ramax.

Ramax works closely with clients to define a search mandate, determine the relevant talent market and assess candidates against the business need. The team responsible for research, outreach, evaluation and client communication is agreed at the outset of the engagement.

Our focus is passive candidates. Professionals who are succeeding at your competitors and not actively looking. Many of these professionals are not actively responding to job postings. Finding them requires relationships, discretion, and deep market knowledge built over decades. That is what we bring to every search.
