Role Summary

The US Intermediaries (USI) Client Experience team at T. Rowe Price is seeking a Senior Client Experience Manager to lead the digital advisor experience across our investment products, including ETFs, SMAs, Model Portfolios, Alternatives, and Mutual Funds, as well as the digital tools advisors use for research and due diligence.

Within that scope, you will serve as the digital advisor experience leader for Model Portfolios, one of the firm’s top strategic growth priorities for financial advisors. Your strategy will drive advisor adoption of our models across digital channels, developed in partnership with senior leaders across Investments, Product, Marketing, and Technology.

You will turn a deep understanding of US financial advisor and client needs into compelling digital experiences that grow the business, and use trends in digital and advisor behavior to inform investment product strategy, development, and services.

As a trusted digital client experience consultant to multiple business teams, you will recommend and help execute the priorities that best reach advisors and their clients and deliver business value. The role also involves guiding cross-functional partners from digital strategy through delivery, using data to measure results, and leading a small team of direct reports.

Responsibilities

Own the advisor experience vision and end-to-end journey strategy for investment products, grounded in research, data, and evolving advisor and client expectations.

Define the digital experience strategy that helps advisors discover, evaluate, and adopt our Model Portfolios, a top firm strategic priority.

Lead advisor segmentation and persona development to acquire, serve, and retain the right advisors, moving toward a “segment of one” approach in partnership with Investments, Product, and Marketing.

• Recommend changes to operational and compliance processes, and ensure annual legal and compliance reviews are completed and experiences updated for regulatory changes.
