You're an experienced marketing professional with a passion for investment products and a deep understanding of the asset management landscape. With strong communication skills and a flair for brand-building, you're ready to lead the charge in expanding market presence. You're also resourceful, proactive, and confident working independently, knowing how to make a meaningful impact across digital and traditional platforms.
You'll lead the full marketing and distribution function for a global fund management business.

You'll handle monthly and quarterly fund updates, drive awareness campaigns, and help position the fund managers as thought leaders.
