What Hoda Kotb's Ex Joel Schiffman Really Does For A Living

Publish date: 2024-03-21

Hoda Kotb's former fiancé Joel Schiffman is a New York businessman. Over on LinkedIn, he lists his job as Head of Strategic Partnerships at Schroder Investment Management, which is an asset management company. The businessman worked his way up to his current position at the company, first starting out there in 2019 (the same year he got engaged to Kotb) as Head of Intermediary Distribution in North America before then moving up to be Head of Strategic Partnerships.

Schiffman has had quite a few different roles in the finance field, too. Before landing his current position, he also worked at Janus Henderson Investors as Vice President and Director of Financial Institutions, while a few of his other resume standouts include working as Director of Retirement Platform Relationships at Lord, Abbett & Co. LLC, and Senior Vice President of Business Development & Client Services at Reed, Connor & Birdwell. As for his education, Schiffman obtained his BA in Economics from the University of California in the 1980s. He then returned to school a few years after graduating to become a Certified Investment Management Analyst from The Wharton School.

The best part of his job, though? It turns out we have Schiffman's line of work to thank for him meeting Kotb, as she explained on "Watch What Happens Live" in 2015 they met when she was giving a speech to who she described as "a bunch of Wall Street guys."
