Alternatives & Private Markets | Sydney A well-regarded alternatives and private markets manager is looking for an Associate Director, Distribution to lead capital raising across the wholesale channel in NSW.

The role

- Build, own and grow a book of relationships with sophisticated and wholesale investors, becoming their first point of contact for the manager's strategies.
- Drive net inflows and FUM growth against clear targets, managing the full sales cycle from prospecting through to allocation.




- Represent the firm's alternatives and private markets strategies with genuine technical credibility — articulating the investment case, structure and fit.
- Work closely with the investment and product teams to translate strategy performance and positioning into compelling client-facing narratives.
- Secure and manage platform and APL placements, and support product launches and capital raises.
- Represent the manager at industry events, conferences and roadshows, and maintain a disciplined pipeline through the CRM.

What you'll bring

- A proven capital raising or wholesale distribution track record within funds management — ideally with alternatives, private markets or private credit exposure.
- An established network across the wholesale channel that you can activate from day one.
- Robust technical understanding of alternatives and the ability to hold a credible conversation with sophisticated investors on structure, strategy and returns.
- A self-starting, commercially hungry approach — comfortable owning targets and operating with autonomy.
- Excellent communication and relationship management skills, and the gravitas to represent the brand externally.
- RG146 compliant; relevant tertiary qualifications (and CFA/postgraduate study viewed favourably).
