We were recently asked by Aaron Brask, one of our guest bloggers, why we don’t provide a “job board” on our site. Aaron works for several large family offices and he says it is incredibly difficult to find intellectually honest talent.

Aaron also pointed out that we have a unique community of savvy, curious, and genuinely engaged readers both on the job seeker side and on the employer side.

For example, perhaps you’d like to be a taxidermist and simultaneously calculate differential equations on a white board at the same time? We can probably find the person who will hire you, but it is unlikely a typical job recruiter could say the same…

In fact, when we posted a job request from an Alpha Architect family office client, we received an overwhelming response, and the family was able to get a placement within a few weeks. So maybe we can help out in this regard!

Anyway, I thought Aaron raised a good point so we went ahead and set up a basic functionality “job board” for our community. Feel free to post jobs.

  • Note, we now have a careers page that will be updated when we have new jobs available.

Good luck.
