Hamptons Family Office Executive Search
Serving Principals Across the New York–Hamptons Corridor. Nationally Recognized by Forbes.
For many of the families who summer in the Hamptons, wealth is managed not from a headquarters but from wherever the principal is — Manhattan in the week, the East End on the weekend. Steward, the family office practice of Cowen Partners Executive Search, recruits the CEOs, CFOs, and chiefs of staff who bring order and continuity to that mobile, multi-generational life. We are a Forbes-ranked search firm with a family office practice built for discretion at the highest level.
Family Office Leadership for the New York–Hamptons Corridor
Hamptons search intent is different from a corporate market. The demand here is driven less by companies headquartered on the East End and more by the principals, estates, and private investment offices that operate between New York City and the Hamptons. As these families professionalize, they need leaders who can manage complexity across residences, entities, and generations.
Steward specializes in exactly this transition. We recruit executives who can partner directly with a principal, run a private investment office, and hold the trust of a family across everything from investment oversight to estate and governance. Every search is led personally by a senior partner and conducted in strict confidence.
That corridor-specific approach is strengthened by Steward’s national family office executive search practice, extending each mandate into a broader network of executives experienced in family offices, private investments, multi-entity operations, and principal-led organizations.
