AMP Capital creates new MD Australia role
AMP Capital has appointed Marsha Beck to the newly created position of managing director, Australia.
The firm said the role was created to strengthen resourcing in Australia and bring all the retail and institutional client teams for the Australian region under one role.
Since November, 2015, Beck has led AMP Capital’s global consultant and account management strategy for the Asia Pacific client division.
Prior to that she worked at Fidante Partners (Challenger Group) and Perennial Investment Partners, where she was responsible for managing Australian and global client relationships and developing and executing business, marketing, client services and sales strategies.
“I am delighted Marsha will be leading the Australian client teams. While we reset and refocus our efforts domestically, it’s important that we have the right leadership in Australia to navigate this period, ensure that we put clients at the centre of our business and set us up for future success,” AMP Capital’s director Asia Pacific, Craig Keary, said.
