We don't just want to hire the best talent; we want to train them to be even better.
Unique workplace -
Our Sydney office is located in the historic Sub Base Platypus precinct on Sydney Harbour. The space was created to support collaboration, focus, and wellbeing, featuring a variety of work zones, meeting hubs, and a dedicated wellness and leisure floor that sets it apart from traditional workplaces.
This is a rare prospect to build a new Australian alternatives platform from inception.
Rather than maintaining an existing product suite, you will help design the platform, build relationships across the Australian investment landscape and play a central role in bringing high-quality global investment managers to Australian investors.
"Success in this role will not be measured by selling existing products. Success will be measured by helping build Australia's leading market-entry platform for international alternative investment managers."
