DeVoe & Co., a consulting and investment banking firm focused on the wealth management sector, has appointed a new head of marketing.
With more than 20 years of experience in financial services marketing, communications, and business development, Jennifer Sransky will use her expertise to reinforce DeVoe & Co.'s position as a leading advisor in the wealth management industry.
A prominent driver and thought leader on growth in the wealth space, DeVoe & Co. distinguishes itself with goal-based investment banking and consulting services for investment advisors.
The firm has committed helping investment advisors realize their growth ambitions by enhancing its comprehensive consulting services, which include strategic advisory, valuation services, and mergers and acquisitions guidance.
"We’re thrilled to welcome Jennifer to the team," David DeVoe, the company’s namesake founder and CEO, said in a statement. "It’s an exciting time for DeVoe & Co. as we continue to expand and deepen our team of senior staff who bring extensive experience and understanding of the wealth management industry."
Before joining DeVoe, Sransky led the marketing efforts at Aduro Advisors, a prominent fund administration service provider to venture capital and private equity firms.
Her professional record also includes 21 years at Berkshire Global Advisors, where she helped devise and implement a marketing and communications strategy that improved the firm’s visibility and brand, enhanced digital engagement, and increased lead generation.
In her new role, Sransky will lead the marketing efforts and further the firm's mission to deliver exceptional results to its clients.
"I am honored to join DeVoe & Co. and contribute to its continued success,” she said.
