Market · Miami and South Florida
Executive search in Miami for wealth, hospitality and the Americas.
Board and C-suite executive search serving luxury, hospitality, family-office and private-wealth businesses in Miami and South Florida.
The market in view
Miami connects US growth, Latin American wealth, hospitality, real estate, yachting, art and a rapidly developing business base. It is both a market in its own right and an operating bridge for organisations serving the Americas.
Clients we serve
Luxury and lifestyle brands, hospitality and branded-residence businesses, family offices, wealth managers, investors and Latin America-facing organisations.
Leadership priorities
- CEO, president and Americas leadership
- Miami and Latin America market leadership
- Family-office and private-wealth appointments
- Hospitality, real-estate and client experience
- Commercial, brand and business development
- Finance, operations, people and digital
What travels — and what does not
We assess local network credibility, cross-border cultural range and the ability to build an institution rather than rely on relationships alone. Spanish or Portuguese capability may be important where the mandate extends into Latin America.
Questions shaping the brief
- Is Miami the headquarters, a market or a gateway?
- Which client communities and regions define success?
- Does the role require wealth, luxury or hospitality depth?
- How should the team support cross-border growth?
Defining this mandate
Establish whether Miami is the operating base, the target market or a headquarters for an Americas remit. Define the relevant client communities, languages and responsibilities before widening the research.
How retained search worksPractical questions
Does a Miami role automatically cover Latin America?
No. Specify the countries, customer relationships and authority in the role. A city address is not a substitute for relevant regional experience.
When do Spanish or Portuguese matter?
Where the stakeholders or markets require them. The brief should distinguish essential operating capability from a preference and provide a way to assess it.
Do you have an office in Miami?
No. Luxury Executive is headquartered in London. Mandates for this market are led from London, with the research geography, stakeholder access and delivery arrangements agreed for the appointment.
The geography is only the beginning of the brief.
