BJ Webster is an industry veteran with over 35 years of experience constructing and managing investment portfolios for clients. He brings his expertise to role of Chief Investment Officer (CIO) for Wealth Services and Retirement Plan Services at Alera Group.

In 2022 Alera Group acquired Wharton Business Group, co-founded by Webster in 1992.
