Sean Hanlon is CEO and Co-Chief Investment Officer of Hanlon Investment Management, which he founded in 1999.

After graduating from Stevens Institute of Technology (Stevens) in 1980 with a Bachelor of Engineering in mechanical engineering, Mr. Hanlon became a project engineer with Rohm and Haas in Bristol, PA. Two years later, Mr. Hanlon was hired into the training program at Merrill Lynch Headquarters in New York City and was assigned to their Atlantic City, NJ branch. Three years later, Paine Webber recruited Mr. Hanlon to open a branch office in Somers Point, NJ in 1986, where he expanded his successful wealth management business.

In 1993, Mr. Hanlon’s entrepreneurial spirit led him to leave Paine Webber and start his own independent firm. In 1999 Mr. Hanlon developed a tactical asset management approach which led to the launch of Hanlon Investment Management (HIM), an SEC registered investment advisor. Expanding on an already successful wealth management practice, HIM expanded into distributing asset management solutions on a wholesale level, where HIM to this day provides investment management services for third-party advisors and their clients.

Today, Hanlon is an innovative wealth management, asset management and services company with both a direct to client wealth management offering and a wholesale institutional asset management platform for non-affiliated, third-party advisors and their clients.

Mr. Hanlon is a member of the Board of Trustees of Stevens and chairman of the advisory board for the Hanlon Financial Systems Center at Stevens. The Center’s mission is to provide and support the infrastructure, software, hardware, and labs used by faculty and researchers for educating students and doing financial systems research.

Mr. Hanlon does or has served on the advisory board of financial service companies and investment partnerships and is an active investor in private equity and venture capital.
