ABOUT PETER TANNENBAUM AND RAMAX SEARCH

Peter Tannenbaum founded Ramax Search with a deliberate focus on financial services recruiting. His aim was to build a firm that works within financial services, treats clients and candidates with respect, and delivers results that remain valuable beyond a single hiring decision. That focus continues to guide how Ramax approaches each mandate and career conversation.

Peter’s work spans hedge funds, private equity firms, registered investment advisors, asset managers, broker dealers, investment banks, commercial banks, fintech companies and other financial services businesses. Ramax supports searches across specialist, operational, management and executive roles, with the approach shaped by the responsibilities of each assignment.

Peter leads Ramax’s financial services recruiting work, from defining the mandate and mapping the market through candidate conversations, presentation and offer management. David Li supports business development and conversations with employers and professionals about their hiring priorities and career interests.

What has kept clients coming back for decades is not a process or a methodology. It is a relationship. Peter and his team take the time to understand not just the role but the firm, the culture, and the people involved. They represent both clients and candidates with the same level of care and honesty, and they will tell you directly when an assignment falls outside the firm’s expertise.

Ramax Search operates on a straightforward principle. Do great work for clients worth working with, represent candidates with integrity, and build relationships that last well beyond any single placement. That is what Peter has done for over 30 years and it is what drives every search today.
