Job description

Asset Management - Marketing Executive

*Please see below for application process*

Osmosis is a rapidly growing asset management business, in what we would argue is the most exciting area of the market - sustainable investing. Our mission is to provide investors with investment solutions that target better risk-adjusted returns while mitigating the environmental impact of their portfolios. Our growth is a testament to the team we have built and the results we have delivered. As we enter our next phase of growth, we need to ramp up our marketing efforts. Our competitors are some of the largest fund management groups in the world ( and some of the smaller ones ) who have eye-watering marketing budgets. So we have to be smarter, more agile and willing to try new ideas and mediums through which to communicate our message. We have great clients, an incredible proposition, big ideas and bigger ambitions - if you're a savvy marketer wanting to make their mark and make a difference, please apply below.

This is a full-time hybrid position.

About Osmosis

Osmosis launched in 2009 and is majority owned by management and employees. The company is headquartered in London with a growing presence in North America.

Osmosis believes that to gain mainstream adoption, sustainable investment should not come at the cost of financial returns and that sustainability metrics, if quantifiable and objective in nature, can be applied to mainstream portfolios to generate alpha. Our range of systematic equity strategies target better risk adjusted returns while simultaneously delivering reduced environmental footprints to their respective benchmarks.

Government Pension Funds, State Pension Funds, Insurance Companies, Foundations, Endowments, Family Offices and Banks, are amongst our client roster spanning Australia, North and South America, Mainland Europe, Nordics, and the UK.

Monument, London, UK / Hybrid (up to 3 days remotely)
