About Good Ancestor Movement
What is the Good Ancestor Movement?
The Good Ancestor Movement is a London-based, not-for-profit, social-purpose organisation supporting high-net-wealth individuals and wealth advisors in values-aligned wealth stewardship and what the organisation calls "radical redistribution." The organisation is registered in England as a private company limited by guarantee (Good Ancestor Limited, Company no. 13301487).
The mission is to disrupt the mainstream private wealth industry by challenging traditional ideas about the economy, excessive wealth growth, tax minimisation and the sharing of resources and power. Their stance — "Tax is often framed as something that should be minimised at all costs. But taxes are the building blocks of a healthy society" — sits in deliberate contrast to most private-wealth advisory.
Services are organised around four offerings: the flagship Reimagining Wealth programme (a 4-month cohort-based learning journey for high-net-wealth individuals), strategic consultancy, a resourcing vehicle, and dedicated support for wealth advisors who want to better serve progressive clients. The organisation is endorsed by named public-intellectual peers including Ingrid Robeyns (political philosopher and author of Limitarianism: The Case Against Extreme Wealth), Roman Krznaric (social philosopher, author of The Good Ancestor and History for Tomorrow, and a speaker on the Reimagining Wealth programme), and the Resource Justice collective.
Where will I work?
Good Ancestor Movement operates from London with hybrid flexibility — registered in England with no single fixed office surfaced on the public site. The current vacancies page lists no open positions; new postings are announced via newsletter.
What is the Good Ancestor Movement team like?
The organisation is led by Founder & CEO Stephanie Brobbey, a former private-client lawyer whose move into building Good Ancestor Movement has been profiled by The Conduit, YES! Magazine and the Family Business Podcast. The wider team is seven people: Stephanie Brobbey (Founder & CEO), Leeanne Adu (Personal Assistant to CEO), Kiki Mager (Director of Resource Mobilisation, they/them), Sarah Mohammad (Senior Movement Builder), Muna Rogoff (Director of Innovation and Practice), Nicki Carter (Programme Coordinator, they/them), and Louise Leil (Director of People and Organisational Development).
That last role — a Director of People and Organisational Development on a 7-person team — is a strong signal of how seriously the organisation takes employee experience and the lived practice of its values. The team's collective work is "grounded in the question of what it means to become good ancestors."
Work-Life Balance
Good Ancestor Movement is structured as a mission-driven not-for-profit and explicitly works on rebuilding economies that allow "people and planet to thrive together." The organisation's framing of "values-aligned stewardship" and the dedicated Director of People and Organisational Development role on a small team both point to a workplace where work-life balance, sustainable pace and the boundary between work and life are taken as core, not peripheral, concerns.
When vacancies open, candidates can expect a workplace built around the same care-and-solidarity principles that Roman Krznaric publicly describes as defining the organisation: "Their approach is one of care and solidarity, an approach we also believe leads to a more lasting transformation."
