The institutional asset management industry is evolving. Clients need more than products; they need a trusted partner and advisor to help them achieve their goals. State Street Global Advisors (SSGA) is seeking a leader of institutional relationship management and client experience who can excel in that environment and help others on their team to do the same. Are you that leader?
As the Head of Relationship Management for our Americas Institutional Client Group, you will be responsible for building and delivering our engagement strategy across the full lifecycle of institutional clients' experience with SSGA in the Americas. You will lead a talented team responsible for handling the day-to-day needs of our clients across multiple offices.
To be successful, you will need to develop an understanding of SSGA's investment and operational capabilities, service offerings, culture and vision in order to maintain and strengthen relationships with our institutional clients and efficiently diagnose issues and solve problems that inevitably arise in the course of a client relationship. Due to the complex needs of our clients, you will need to build collaborative relationships across our sales, investment, product, marketing, operations, finance, legal, compliance and other internal teams critical to the end-to-end client lifecycle, from initial contact to on-boarding to (hopefully infrequent) off-boarding. You will also partner with senior leaders on our EMEA and Asia-Pacific teams on strategic business initiatives to ensure global consistency and coordination and the successful implementation of newly developed engagement strategies and processes. These interactions will take many forms, including organizing and leading projects and strategic initiatives related to complex client deals and issues as well as broader, more thematic initiatives designed to continuously improve the overall experience clients have in working with SSGA.
This role is part of the Americas Institutional Client Group and you will report to the Head of Americas Institutional Client Group.

10 - 15 years of experience and a successful track record in an institutional client-facing role at an asset management firm

Leadership of strategic key projects from the initiation and planning stages through execution and completion related to improving ICG's overall business processes, with a specific focus on client service and relationship management
A proven track record of success building complex solutions with and for clients, including direct involvement in the internal deal team and on-boarding process
Existing industry relationships that can help accelerate success of sales initiatives and retention of existing clients
You are able to lead, prioritize and execute on multiple simultaneous priorities and initiatives
