Head of Wealth Advisory - Singapore

Syfe is APAC's largest and fastest-growing digital wealth platform, trusted with over US$10 billion in assets. We are fundamentally changing how hundreds of thousands of people across Asia-Pacific build wealth through a holistic approach to managing money rather than just pushing investment products. Backed by world-class investors and recognised as a leader in WealthTech, we are a team of passionate builders creating the future of wealth management.

The Right Profile

Syfe is building the next generation of wealth management in Asia - combining institutional-grade investments with a digital-first client experience. We are looking for a Head of Wealth Advisory to lead our advisory function as a "player-coach" - managing a team while remaining actively engaged in client relationships.

This is a rare opportunity to operate at the intersection of client leadership, advisory, and platform building - working directly with senior leadership to shape how we serve both mass affluent and high-net-worth clients at scale, while driving strategic growth across the APAC region.

You will play a key role in designing a hybrid advisory model - delivering deeply personalised experiences for HNW clients, while translating mass affluent advisory into scalable, tech-enabled journeys for the next generation of investors.

Key Responsibilities

• Team Leadership & Governance
  • Oversee the effective and efficient operation of Syfe's wealth advisory team managing a lean team of licensed Wealth Advisors.
  • Act as a senior voice within the organisation—raising the bar on advisory quality, mentoring the team, developing talent, and shaping how Syfe delivers client outcomes while ensuring MAS regulatory compliance.
• Hands-on Client Advisory
  • Originate and build relationships with new-to-Syfe affluent and HNW clients, driving AUM growth through proactive business development, referrals, and strategic partnerships.
  • Build and lead relationships with a select group of clients, becoming a trusted partner on their most important investment and wealth decisions.
  • Drive meaningful AUM growth and high client retention through high-quality advice, long-term relationships, and a differentiated client experience.
• Strategic Growth & Platform Scalability
  • Own and build Syfe's end-to-end advisory strategy—developing the annual business plan and defining how we acquire, serve, and grow clients across segmentation, coverage, product offering, and advisory experience.
  • Reimagine how advisory scales by working with product and design teams to digitise guidance for mass affluent clients without compromising quality.

Minimum Qualifications

• 8–12+ years of experience in wealth management, investment advisory, or client-facing / sales roles, with strong exposure to affluent / HNW clients and proven experience mentoring or leading advisory teams.
• Proven track record in client acquisition and AUM growth, with the ability to independently originate opportunities.
• Strong grounding in markets, financial products, and portfolio allocations, with the ability to engage in sophisticated investment discussions.
• Demonstrated ability to lead initiatives, influence stakeholders, and contribute at a strategic level.
• A builder mindset—you are motivated by creating new models, not just operating within existing ones.
• Strong commercial instincts combined with a long-term, client-first approach.
• MAS-licensed or eligible under the Financial Advisers Act.

Why This Role

• A chance to shape the future of advisory, not just participate in it.
  Direct exposure to leadership & ability to influence product, investment & business strategy.
• The opportunity to build a hybrid advisory model (digital + human) from the ground up.
• Attractive performance-based compensation structure.
• Employee Stock Option Program (ESOP) to participate in Syfe's long-term success.
