Ko Mātou – About Us

Kia Hanga I Te Ao, E Ora Ai, E Tupu Ai, Te Tangata Me Te Kainga. At ANZ, we're shaping a world where people and communities thrive, driven by a common goal: to improve the financial wellbeing and sustainability of our customers.

Mō te tūranga - About the role

As a Fixed Interest Portfolio Manager in our Investment Management team, you’ll play a key role in our mission to deliver investment excellence and outstanding outcomes for our customers.

NZ Investments manages approximately NZ$35bn in funds under management, with around $14bn allocated to Fixed Income and Cash.

With a global fixed interest remit, you’ll work across domestic and international markets. You will invest directly in New Zealand and Australian fixed interest assets, while also contributing analysis and oversight across externally managed global mandates. You’ll have a strong understanding of benchmark replication techniques and be confident using a range of financial instruments, including derivatives.

Banking is changing and we’re changing with it, giving our people great opportunities to try new things, learn and grow. Whatever your role at ANZ, you’ll be building your future, while helping to build ours.
