Serve as the primary relationship holder for financial institution partners — identifying referral opportunities and positioning EBC as the go-to art advisory resource for their UHNW clients
Collaborate closely with Evan and the advisory team to translate client financial profiles into art market strategy
Represent EBC at industry events, conferences, and client-facing engagements in both the financial and art worlds
Support pitch development, proposals, and materials targeting institutional audiences
Stay current on art market trends, auction results, and asset-level developments relevant to wealth clients

8–10 years of experience at a bank, wealth management firm, or financial institution; art market experience a strong plus
Deep understanding of UHNW client dynamics and how financial advisors and private bankers approach alternative assets
Existing relationships within the private banking or wealth management community preferred
