About your team

Fidelity Multi Asset is a global team managing over $91bn of client assets (as of 30 June 2026) investing in a wide range of asset types including equities, bonds, real estate, infrastructure, and other alternatives. The client base is divided broadly equally between retail/wholesale and institutional clients. Around half of our clients are based in Europe, including the UK, with the remainder split between Asia, Japan, and the Middle East.

The main objective of the Multi Asset Investment Directing function is to support the development and growth of Fidelity’s business – by delivering client servicing, product and investment specialism and client engagement. To achieve this, the team is responsible for representing the investment capabilities of the Multi Asset team to prospective and existing clients, providing comprehensive and outstanding reporting on portfolios, promoting thought leadership, and generating marketing material to support sales activity.

The team is also responsible for supporting and developing the engagement model with investment teams, the SAA/Macro team, Solutions, operational teams, and distribution to ensure that strategies remain fit for purpose, in line with client requirements as well as co-ordinating with investment teams to develop new products and innovation. This requires strong engagement with distribution, investment management and senior management to evaluate new business opportunities, assess and ensure that the solutions design and strategies delivered to clients are consistent with the investment management approach across the business as well as building relationships with key strategic clients. Success in this field requires strong investment knowledge, a deep and continuously evolving understanding of portfolio strategies, a capacity to communicate these in different formats and an ability to support sales teams through direct client relationships where appropriate. The Investment Directing team is a globally integrated team with representatives in London, Frankfurt, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Dalian, and Gurgaon (India).
