Job Overview

We are looking for a highly organized, client-focused professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment and is passionate about delivering exceptional service to international private banking clients. This role requires fluency in Spanish and English and the ability to manage multiple priorities with a strong sense of urgency. You will handle a wide range of responsibilities—from opening accounts and processing wires to supporting both banking and investment activities—while working directly with Kevin and providing cross-team coverage.

Our clients stay with us because of the relationships we build and the dedication we show. You’ll be at the center of that experience, ensuring every interaction is seamless and personalized. This position is ideal for a self-starter who is curious, eager to learn, and able to think independently. While licenses are not required, this role offers excellent growth potential.

You’ll work with multiple systems, including IBS, NetX360, Deposit Origination, My Valley, GFT , and Black Diamond, supporting everything from onboarding to investment-related activities. Unlike larger institutions where roles are highly specialized, here you’ll gain exposure to the entire client lifecycle—serving families across generations and handling diverse needs. If you’re adaptable, client-centric, and ready to make an impact, we’d love to meet you.
