The Opportunity

Our client is a well-established boutique investment manager with a 25+ year track record, offering actively managed Australian equity strategies across the small, mid and large-cap spectrum.

We are looking for a Senior Business Development Manager to take full ownership of the Queensland territory — a clear mandate to originate opportunities, convert new business and drive sustainable FUM and revenue growth. You'll operate as the firm's senior distribution presence in the state, with real autonomy and the backing of a national sales team and experienced investment professionals.

This is not a maintenance role. It's an opportunity to own and build a significant market rather than inherit a narrowly defined sales patch — ideal for a BDM who enjoys opening doors, building relationships and winning allocations.

The Role

• Own the Queensland wholesale sales strategy and territory
• Generate meaningful net new FUM and revenue across the firm's investment strategies
• Build senior relationships across financial advisers, dealer groups, private banks, wealth managers, family offices and intermediary markets
• Manage the full sales cycle: initial engagement through due diligence, platform access and allocation
• Maintain a high-quality pipeline of prospects and allocation opportunities

About you

• Strong experience in funds management distribution, investment sales, private wealth or a closely related wholesale investment role
• A strong network across the Queensland adviser and wealth management market
• A proven track record of originating new opportunities, raising FUM and winning investment flows
• Strong understanding of Australian equities, managed funds and the broader investment landscape
• A genuine self-starter — entrepreneurial enough to build a territory, collaborative enough to work within a national team

Remuneration of $200,000 – $250,000 package including super, plus an attractive performance-based bonus. First-year earnings support is also on offer while you build your revenue pool — with the expectation you're out winning assets from day one.
