Joel Stevens returns to Bernstein Private Wealth Management to head up Tampaoperations and growth in the region, returning from New York where he was Senior Managing Director.
“Tampa has consistently been an area of opportunity since we opened our office nearly 20 years ago, and we are very excited about the growth and wealth momentum taking place in the region. Tampa is one of the fastest evolving markets in the country for wealth creation driven by its ability to attract entrepreneurs, business owners and younger professionals,” said David Barnard, Head of Private Wealth Management. “Joel, as an accomplished leader and the original founder of the Tampa office, has deep roots in the local community, and is passionate about helping individuals and institutions.”
Joel will bring more than three decades of industry experience to the role.
“Opening Bernstein’s Tampa office in 2004 taught me a great deal about leadership and cultivating a relentless yet collaborative culture. I’m excited to be back in Tampa to build on and expand the office’s strong foundation. The number one asset of a company like ours is its people, and I aspire to enhance the culture, growth, diversity and inclusion of our Tampa office,” said Stevens.
