BDM joins Warakirri's new Sydney office

Warakirri Asset Management has appointed Scott Curtis to its retail distribution team as a business development manager.

Curtis will be stationed in the organisation's newly-opened Sydney office.

"We are delighted that Scott has joined Warakirri," said managing director Jim McKay. "It's an exciting time of significant growth and development at Warakirri and his experience in working with sophisticated advisers who are demanding differentiated, quality solutions will help deliver on our ambition to deliver unique investment solutions into the retail market."

Curtis joins the organisation from Liverpool Partners where he helped source private investments in the mid-market. He's also held business development roles at Microequities Asset Management, Business Spectator, and was in the operations team at Macquarie Bank.

Warakirri recently announced a strategic partnership with Northcape Capital to be the underlying investment manager for a number of Warakirri funds. They presently have $2 billion FUM.
