Our client is a boutique Funds Management business with a strong track record, both in terms of the success of their fund performance and the tenure and team culture. It is a hard working culture where team success is celebrated above personal. Up to now, the firm's success has been largely organic and has not relied on traditional marketing, but with a growing number of funds and a larger distribution team in place, they are looking for a high calibre candidate to take their marketing presence to the next level.
Key Areas of Responsibility
In this newly created role, you will create and lead the marketing strategy, designing specific campaigns and running events designed to drive engagement and interest amongst target investors.

- Tertiary degree in Business with Marketing major
- Creative and innovative thinker

You will be joining a 25 person business which has a fantastic reputation and thus, you will have plenty of content and contacts internally to promote. This is a business with pride and integrity and this is reflected by their investment strategy and ethos. They do what is right, rather than what have a short-term return if it's not in line with their principles.
The desired candidate must have the desire or prior experience of working in a boutique business as it's a small team and you are required to be both strategic and also on the tools, doing tasks not every Senior Marketing Manager will be. You will also have the freedom to be innovative and really build a brand that up to now has been a well-kept secret.
