Senior AI Solutions Manager

Savvy Wealth • New York, NY

1d • Onsite

About The Position

Wealth management is a $545 billion industry in the US, yet remains archaic and inefficient with low technology penetration. 75% of financial advisors don’t offer digital communication beyond email, and 62% still build financial plans manually in Excel. This leads to a poor client experience and results in financial advisors spending over 70% of their time on non-client facing, manual work. Savvy is changing that. We’re building the most advisor-centric platform in wealth management: a digital-first solution that modernizes human financial advice. Advisors who partner with Savvy tap into AI-powered software, automated sales and marketing, and seamless back office workflows to scale faster and spend more time with clients. We’ve raised over $105M to date from Thrive Capital, Index Ventures, Canvas Ventures, Mark Casady (former LPL Financial CEO), and other top-tier investors. Our team is made up of repeat founders and operators who’ve helped build Airbnb, Square, Brex, Carta, Facebook, $200B+ RIAs, and more. Savvy is at a pivotal point in its growth trajectory, having established strong product-market fit in providing a modern platform to financial advisors. We’ve surpassed $2.2 billion in AUM in less than three years, grown 600%+ in the last 18 months, and are entering the next phase of the company which involves rapid expansion of our product offering and continued revenue growth. Come help us scale! The Senior Manager, AI Solutions will be a pivotal role focused exclusively on uncovering and implementing AI and automation solutions across the Operations organization. This individual will conduct thorough research & discovery, uncover opportunities, build compelling business cases, secure cross-functional support, and lead the testing and implementation of AI initiatives within internal teams.

This person will report to Savvy’s Chief Operating Officer but is expected to work closely with functional leaders across the Operations team.
