BetaShares, a leading Australian manager of exchange traded funds, has announced its intention to add to its staff as its business continues to expand.
After a strong 2015, BetaShares is continuing to invest for further growth and is currently looking to hire four additional team members across portfolio management, operations, sales and marketing. In addition, BetaShares has recently added to its sales and operations teams with two new hires.
The recent appointments follow on from a hallmark year of growth for the Australian exchange traded fund industry, in which the industry reached its highest ever annual growth to finish at a new record high market capitalisation of $21 billion.
Michael Tat has been appointed as Operations Analyst – Investment Operations. Mr Tat has held roles previously at Platinum Asset Management, Perpetual and Anne Street Partners.
Additionally, Aditi Grover has been appointed as Business Development Associate – Adviser Services. Ms. Grover previously worked at Absolute Wealth Advisers.
BetaShares Managing Director Alex Vynokur said the new hires reflected the Company’s continued commitment to the rapidly expanding ETF industry.

As one of the leading managers of exchange traded funds in Australia, BetaShares has one of the largest dedicated ETF teams in the market, supporting our strong client services ethic, commitment to investor education, and focus on product innovation.
