OVERVIEW

Stax recently announced a strategic investment by Blue Point Capital Partners which will fuel a new chapter of growth in key areas across the firm including expanding our recruitment and talent development efforts.

Managing Directors play a vital role within the firm and are presented with tremendous opportunities for professional development and personal growth.

Life at Stax is unique - our goal is to empower and challenge employees, while supporting a reasonable work/life balance. No question: you will work hard.
