About your team At the centre of Fidelity’s success is our approach to managing money, with the philosophy unchanged since we were founded. Our approach places first-hand, detailed research at the core of our decision making, ensuring that every security – whether equity or bond – is investigated in detail before being included in our funds. We subsequently build our funds from the bottom up, stock by stock, taking account of market trends but not being driven by them.

With close to 50 years’ experience managing equity portfolios, we offer institutional clients a broad range of investment solutions across the risk/return spectrum. Our distinctive active strategies extend across geographies, sectors, investment objectives (capital growth vs. income), risk spectrum, investment styles and market cap. They include long-only as well as long/short strategies.   About your role The purpose of the role is to support the Solutions business at FIL to achieve its commercial growth ambitions whilst delivering growth scalably and with the appropriate degree of risk control.  The role will require developing a strong understanding of how Fidelity operates, an ability to work effectively with client facing staff, product, investment teams, operations and technology, as well as compliance, risk and audit.

A detailed understanding of Fidelity’s investment capabilities, as well as the operational and technology capabilities needed to deliver Solutions is critical. An ability to connect people across functions, and the organisational discipline to create the documentation, workflow structure and governance needed to bring groups together and move priorities forward will be key.
