Robert L. Devinney, CFP®, ChFC®

Rob is a Principal in Cerity Partners’ Boston office, where he is a member of the Wealth Management team providing comprehensive financial planning and guidance to high-net-worth individuals, families, business owners, and endowments. He works with clients whose goals span capital appreciation, retirement planning, tax mitigation, and everything in between.

Rob brings 15 years of financial services experience to his work with clients, having built his career across progressively more complex advisory roles before joining Cerity Partners. He believes that sound planning starts with understanding each client’s specific goals and circumstances and works to build strategies and maintain the kind of consistent, ongoing communication that ensures financial plans stay implemented and relevant as clients’ needs evolve.

Prior to joining Cerity Partners in 2025, Rob spent over five years as a Relationship Manager at Prio Wealth, a registered investment advisor in Boston, where he served as a primary point of contact for clients and families, and collaborated with their professional contacts to implement financial plans. He began his career in financial services at Fidelity Investments, where he advanced through a series of client-facing roles — starting in Merrimack, NH, before relocating to Burlington, MA, and ultimately Fidelity’s Boston, Back Bay offices. Along the way, he worked closely with hundreds of clients on investment strategies and complex guidance needs, building a reputation for the kind of steady, hands-on communication that clients could count on as their needs changed.

Outside of the office, Rob enjoys cooking, going to concerts, and spending time with his family. He lives in Needham, MA, with his wife, their two children, and their rescued lab hound mix, Sunny.
