Platinum Pacific Partners has been exclusively engaged by a leading Australian alternative asset manager to lead a confidential search for a newly created Associate Director role within its Product function. Reporting to the Director of Product, this is effectively a second-in-command position within a growing product and structuring function. The successful candidate will be the most senior product professional in the team, other than the Director. The Product function sits within the firm's broader Distribution & Investor Relations team, with a focus on product design, structuring and delivery.
Your role will focus on end-to-end product lifecycle management across new and existing strategies. There is a strong emphasis on offshore structuring, including SPVs, feeder funds and closed-ended fund vehicles. You will also manage hedging structures and currency overlays, and act as the key project manager across a wide range of internal and external stakeholders, including legal, operations, treasury and service providers, keeping products moving efficiently through launch and into ongoing management.
The product suite is expanding, and this role offers real scope to shape how new strategies come to market. The pipeline is active and diverse, spanning closed-ended funds, feeder fund structures, high-yield real estate and real estate equity products, alongside broader structured credit initiatives.
