Global investment firm T. Rowe Price has promoted Jonathan Ross to head of intermediary Australia and New Zealand, to lead the firm’s continued growth in the intermediary channel.

Sydney-based Ross joined the firm in 2015 as a relationship manager and had been acting head of intermediary since May 2020.

Ross had also held business development positions at NAB Asset Management and MLC.

He had officially took over his current remit on 1 September from Darren Hall who was promoted as head of distribution for Australian and New Zealand on 28 August who he would report to.

“Jonathon’s extensive experience, enthusiasm and high energy approach are the perfect qualities to lead the team through the next stage of growth,” Hall said.

“He has been an integral part of T. Rowe Price’s growth and success in the intermediary channel, leading some of our largest client relationships and driving new initiatives for future growth.”

Ross said advisers were an incredibly important segment to the firm’s business and there was ample evidence that people who sought financial advice had better financial outcomes.

“It’s a privilege to lead the firm’s well-respected and highly capable team to support the adviser community, especially amidst these times of accelerated change where fund managers and advisers alike have had to adapt to stay engaged,” Ross said.

“Our key focus is to continue to provide relevant support and a high level of service to the adviser community.”
