Raymond James

Born and raised in Naples, Geoff Hunter graduated from Gulf Coast High School and attended Florida State University, where he earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in finance. He started his professional career with Raymond James Financial in its corporate headquarters in St. Petersburg, but when the opportunity arose to manage the company’s Naples office, he relocated back to his hometown.

“I believe in having a servant leader mindset in all things, whether it’s work, community involvement or my family,” he says. “At work, my role is to support my advisors and associates with achieving their goals; my success is tied to and dependent on theirs. Outside the office, I want to stay involved in the community, because this is where I was born and raised. I want to support its continued growth and development.”

Hunter volunteers his time and resources serving on the board of directors for Cancer Alliance of Naples and the Seminole Club of Naples. He has also involved his office in food drives, toy drives, Habitat for Humanity builds and volunteering for the Boys and Girls Club and United Way campaigns.
