This is a great job for a highly motivated and experienced UK Portfolio Manager with a track record of outperformance in both UK mid and large-cap Stewardship investment to join one of the leading UK Equities teams in asset management. The Sustainable Stewardship approach focuses on Social, Climate and Nature assessing both positive and negative alignment to UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) with an emphasis on bespoke engagements.
A bit about the job:
We are looking to recruit a co-manager to work on the UK Equity portfolios. This person must have both UK mid and large-cap experience to be suitable for the portfolios in question. We are seeking an individual who will work closely with the members of the UK and Global equity teams and across the wider business to leverage the significant resources available to the UK strategies. We are structured in sector hubs to facilitate debate and ensure a robust selection process. The individual will have sector coverage and generate ideas for the wider UK and Global Equity portfolios beyond their immediate direct fund responsibilities. We follow a rigorous research process to arrive at high conviction investment ideas with a strong emphasis on ESG and risk embedded in our process.
Skills and experience we’re looking for:
* Experience as a UK Portfolio Manager, with an attributable track record of outperformance against relevant benchmarks and peer groups
* Extensive experience focused on UK Stewardship / Responsible Investment across mid and large cap stocks
* Healthcare sector experience desirable
* Disciplined portfolio construction skills and benchmark aware with strong financial skills including financial modelling and analysis capability
* Experience marketing to institutional or retail clients
What you’ll get for this role:
* Generous pension scheme - Aviva will contribute up to 14%, depending on what you put in
* Eligibility for annual performance bonus

* Aviva Matching Share Plan and Save As You Earn scheme
* 21 volunteering hours per year
In this role you’ll be ‘Certified’ under the Financial Conduct Authority / Prudential Regulation Authority’s Senior Managers and Certification Regime (SMCR). This means that we’ll need to complete some regulatory background checks on you before you take up your role and we’ll need to ask you some questions on an annual basis to make sure you remain ‘fit and proper’ and competent to carry out your role. We’ll provide training on what holding a SMCR role means when you join us and annually thereafter.
