Funds Management Recruitment

Precision placements for funds, platforms, and mandates

From fund analysts to distribution leaders, we help investment managers hire professionals who deliver performance, protect reputations, and grow portfolios.

Insight-Led Recruitment for a Regulated, Reputation-Driven Sector

Funds management is evolving. Regulatory scrutiny, product diversification, and investor expectations are reshaping how firms hire. It demands hires who can meet compliance obligations, engage with sophisticated investors, and operate across complex product structures. At Platinum People Group, we recruit people who bring commercial judgement and control.

We recruit for:

  • Portfolio managers and investment analysts with AFSL-aligned experience

  • Compliance and governance professionals (RG97, ASIC, AML/CTF)

  • Heads of distribution, BDMs, and adviser platform specialists

  • Operations, reporting, and client services roles in wholesale and retail funds

 
Strategic Hiring Outcomes

Why hire through Platinum People Group?

Funds management recruitment requires depth, discretion, and regulatory fluency. A poor-fit hire can affect investor confidence, breach AFSL boundaries, or disrupt fund performance. That’s why we go beyond CVs and titles.

This isn’t generalist financial services hiring. This is specialist search, built for funds that value precision.

Our Process

Rapid fund growth needs recruitment that keeps up

Built for regulated complexity, lean teams, and scale-sensitive hires.

Context-Driven Intake

We immerse in your funding model, credit appetite, compliance stack, and borrower profile — so hires support your lending strategy, not just fill seats.

Proactive Search Model

We don’t wait for applications. We identify proven performers from aligned lenders, challenger banks, and fintech verticals — often through discreet, signal-based outreach.

Scalability Screening

We assess candidates for early-stage grit, volume-readiness, and experience across origination, credit, and ops — ensuring they scale with you, not stall you.

Lending-Specific Risk Filters

We flag hires with red-zone risk: AFCA disputes, DLA breaches, toxic exits, or tenure instability, protecting reputation and compliance integrity.

We partner with VC-backed non-banks, ASX-listed fintechs, family-office lenders, and niche private credit funds.
