Clark Capital Recognized as a Best Places to Work Winner for the Sixth Year in a Row
Philadelphia, PA, August 5, 2024—Clark Capital Management Group, an independent asset manager founded in 1986, has once again been honored as one of the 2024 Best Places to Work by the Philadelphia Business Journal in the large-size firm category. This award marks the sixth consecutive year that Clark Capital has received this recognition, underscoring its ongoing commitment to fostering a supportive and inclusive workplace environment dedicated to delivering asset management excellence to advisors and investors.
Over the past year, the firm embarked on a complete renovation of its Philadelphia headquarters, which included expanding to the 54th floor of One Liberty Place. At the forefront of the new design is Clark Capital’s culture of care, which includes a variety of collaboration spaces, a state-of-the-art café, and employee wellness rooms. The firm also continues to promote a hybrid work model to support work-life balance.
“We’ve always believed that our greatest asset is our people,” said Chief Executive Officer Brendan Clark. “Our team’s dedication and commitment enable us to deliver exceptional service to our advisors and clients. With our recent renovations, we’ve created a world-class environment where every team member can thrive personally and professionally.”
The firm has also continued to enhance its employee benefits, solidifying its reputation as an employer of choice. Notably, the firm has maintained healthcare contributions at existing levels, absorbing rising deductibles amidst increasing healthcare costs.
“We understand the importance of supporting our employees’ holistic well-being,” said Colene Clark Bittone, EVP of Corporate Culture. “That’s why we’ve invested in our benefits program and new initiatives like our wellness rooms, providing spaces for meditation and mental rejuvenation.”
In addition to its robust benefits package, Clark Capital distinguishes itself through its employee shareholder program, which provides ownership opportunities to all employees, fostering alignment and empowering contributions to the firm’s success.
“We’re thrilled to be recognized once again by the Philadelphia Business Journal for our continued dedication to our employees,” added Colene. “Our culture of care continues to be at the center of our mission to partner with elite financial advisors and deliver investment success.”
