Jobs news: We met Matthew Moore, Ethinvest’s new general manager at our 4 March leaders forum with Matt Kean and Martijn Wilder but had not caught up with his appointment story.
Moore takes over the reins with a good stock of skills in sustainable and responsible investment. He’s managed portfolios of up to $1.6 billion at Uniting Financial Services and led the development of the responsible investment framework for $30 billion in assets at Australian Unity Wealth and Capital Markets.
Managing director Trevor Thomas said, “The Ethinvest team is thrilled to have Matthew on board as we continue expanding our ethical and impact investment services. With Ethinvest now overseeing $1.3 billion in ethically screened and impact assets and a managed portfolio service exceeding $100 million, Matthew’s expertise will be invaluable in driving our next phase of growth.”
Moore will take over from Fiona Thomas, who is moving back to a full-time advising role with Ethinvest.
The company has helped found the Responsible Investment Association Australasia (RIAA), the Ethical Advisers’ Co-op and Australian Impact Investments. More than 30 per cent of profits are donated to the Ethinvest Foundation and the Community Impact Foundation.
