Sabina Khoja / Northwestern Mutual
Wisconsin based financial services company, Northwestern Mutual, recently appointed Sabina Khoja as its new managing director, marking a significant milestone in an industry where women remain vastly underrepresented in leadership roles.
Khoja, a veteran at Northwestern Mutual, has been given the top office after serving the company for over a decade. She joined Northwestern in 2015, as a Financial Representative intern, and has worked her way to the top.
She holds degrees from the American College of Financial Services and from Augusta University and began her career directly out of college, a pathway that remains exceptionally uncommon among financial services leaders today, according to the company.

Northwestern further noted that Khoja’s appointment comes after ten years of consistent performance, leadership development, and practice growth, including recognition through a Forbes ranked advisory practice.
Talking about her appointment, she said, "“This appointment represents more than a title, It reflects what’s possible when women are given access, support, and a long-term vision in an industry that hasn’t always been designed for us to stay, let alone lead.
Highlighting her priorities, she said, I’m deeply committed to building a team and a culture that opens doors for others while delivering meaningful, values-driven financial guidance to the communities we serve.”
In her role as Managing Director, Khoja will grow and lead a team of advisors, with a strong emphasis on mentorship, professional development, and expanding access to financial services in underserved markets.
Her leadership will be guided by a clear mission, 'to build a sustainable, people-first organization that prioritizes both strong client outcomes and advisor growth', noted the company in a statement.
Sabina Khoja is a managing director and financial advisor with over ten years of experience serving individuals, families, and communities through strategic financial planning.
She is known for her commitment to mentorship and inclusive leadership, and for her dedication to building teams and systems that expand access to financial services while fostering long-term career success for the next generation of advisors.
