Before becoming a search consultant, Jack spent more than three decades inside two US financial institutions — running operations, owning P&L, and sitting in the exact roles he now fills for his clients. The result is a shortlist built on substance, not keywords.

Most recruiters read a job description. Jack reads a desk. Having run the very functions he now searches for — from global custody settlement to PE fund oversight — he screens for the things a résumé cannot show: judgement, commercial instinct, regulatory pragmatism, and cultural fit.
A shortlist is only as useful as the person building it. If the headhunter has never carried a book, never closed a quarter, never sat across from a regulator — the filter is missing.
Jack Ho founded Jack Ho & Co Limited in 2023 after a career that moved from the Citi operations floor in the early 1980s, through corporate treasury at Bankers Trust and Nedcor, to a fifteen-year Associate Directorship at AIG Global Investment Corporation (Asia). He has sat as Relationship Manager, Operations Head, Chief of Staff, Financial Controller, and PE/VC lead.
That operator lens is what his clients — commercial banks, private wealth platforms, investment banks, and family offices — now hire him for. When a candidate talks about a DCM book or a trust structure or a climate-risk framework, he has been there, in some form, already.
Each engagement is led personally. No junior hand-offs, no keyword-matched longlists, no volume plays.
Retained mandates across the buy-side and sell-side — from analyst through Managing Director. Briefs are scoped with the hiring principal, mapped against a private network built over 44 years, and delivered with candour on fit and market.
Confidential, senior-led coaching for professionals at inflection points. CV positioning, interview preparation, and frank counsel on moves, counter-offers, and long-horizon career architecture from someone who has hired, fired, and mentored for four decades.
Discreet introductions between sponsors, capital allocators, and operating principals. Drawing on Jack's PE, family-office, and institutional-banking history to source deals and connect capital in sectors where he holds genuine relationships.
Specialisation matters. These are the functions Jack has personally operated in, searched for over a decade, or holds a proprietary candidate network across.
A representative sample of active briefs. Full details and additional confidential mandates are shared on request. As of May 2026.
Retained, bespoke, and senior-led from first call to onboarding. Four phases, no hand-offs.
A working session with the hiring principal to agree mandate, profile, and the commercial reality of the desk being hired into.
A written market map, built from a private network — not a LinkedIn scrape — with a candid read on who will and will not move.
Three to five calibrated candidates, personally interviewed, presented with honest views on fit, upside, and risk.
Offer management, counter-offer strategy, reference work, and a structured onboarding check at 30, 60, and 90 days.
Whether you are hiring, being approached, or simply weighing a move — Jack takes the call himself. Initial conversations are always confidential and without obligation.
