The Opportunity - Melbourne or Sydney Behind every strong investment offering is robust data, disciplined oversight and reporting that people can trust. We’re looking for a Data & Reporting Analyst, Investment Governance to join our Investment Management & Research team and help support the governance behind Netwealth’s investment offering. You’ll work across investment data, monitoring and reporting, helping us maintain a clear and reliable view of how our investment governance frameworks are operating. From validating data and monitoring key triggers through to preparing reporting for senior management, Investment Committees and Board forums, your work will help ensure the right information gets to the right people at the right time. This is a great opportunity for someone with around 2 to 5 years’ experience who enjoys working with data, investigating anomalies and turning complex information into accurate, practical reporting.

What You’ll Do

  • You’ll work closely with Investment Management & Research and stakeholders across Netwealth to support our ongoing investment governance program.
  • Collect, reconcile and validate investment governance data from multiple sources, investigating anomalies and escalating gaps where required

  • You’ll collaborate with teams across Investment Operations, Client Operations, Office of the Trustee, Legal, Risk & Compliance and Technology, as well as external service providers.

About You

You’re analytical, organised and naturally curious.

You’re also comfortable communicating what the data is telling you, where there are limitations and when something needs further investigation. Ideally, you’ll bring:

  • 2 to 5 years’ experience across data analysis, investment operations, investment governance, risk, controls, financial services reporting or a similar analytical environment
  • Strong Microsoft Excel capability and experience working with reconciliations, structured datasets, reporting and data quality checks
  • Experience with Power BI and SQL is highly regarded, with exposure to Python also advantageous
  • Strong attention to detail and confidence investigating data anomalies back to source
  • Good documentation habits and an ability to create clear, repeatable processes that others can follow
  • Clear communication skills and the ability to explain data, exceptions and issues to both technical and non technical stakeholders
  • Exposure to investment products, superannuation, investment governance or APRA prudential standards such as SPS 530 would be advantageous, as would experience with investment data platforms such as FactSet or Morningstar.
  • A tertiary qualification in finance, commerce, economics, data analytics, mathematics, statistics or a related discipline is preferred.
