Schroders Australia has appointed an experienced business development manager, Eliza Weaving, to the intermediary team.

Ms Weaving will cover the Victorian, South Australian, West Australian and Tasmanian regions and will report directly to Schroders’ head of intermediary, Jude Fernandez.  

Ms Weaving joins from Capital Group where she was distribution director, a position she held for five years. Prior to that she was national distribution manager at SG Hiscock, and served in similar roles at Equity Trustees, Vanguard Investments and AXA.

Mr Fernandez says that Ms Weaving’s extensive history of working in the investment management industry will be an asset to the wider team as Schroders moves to further broaden its footprint in the intermediary market.

“Eliza is an experienced distribution manager with a proven track record in the investment management industry. With over two decades of knowledge and expertise in various business development and distribution roles, I am confident she will make an immediate impact on our team and our clients.

“As a global asset and wealth manager, Schroders delivers a broad range of investments designed to meet the diverse needs of advisers and their clients.

“Eliza’s experience in customer relationships, asset management, pension funds, investment strategies and retirement planning will bring additional benefits to our wider business,” Mr Fernandez says.

Ms Weaving has Bachelor of Economics from Monash University, a Diploma of Superannuation Management from Macquarie University, and a Graduate Diploma in Financial Planning from the Securities Institute of Australia.
