NEW YORK, May 25, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Options Group, a leading global executive search and strategic consulting firm, announces the hire of John Carreras as Executive Director, Head of Options Group's newest office in Miami. He will lead the private wealth management (PWM) practice in the Americas and will spearhead the launch of this office. The additional location and senior hire are a part of Options Group's expansion plans to serve the growing demand for financial recruitment and advisory services worldwide.

Mr. Carreras joins Options Group following a distinguished career as a private wealth management executive recruiter.
