UK Stewardship Portfolio Manager

This is a great job for a highly motivated and experienced UK Portfolio Manager with a track record of outperformance in both UK mid and large-cap Stewardship investment to join one of the leading UK Equities teams in asset management. The Sustainable Stewardship approach focuses on Social, Climate and Nature assessing both positive and negative alignment to UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) with an emphasis on bespoke engagements.

A bit about the job:

We are looking to recruit a co-manager to work on the UK Equity portfolios. This person must have both UK mid and large-cap experience to be suitable for the portfolios in question. We are seeking an individual who will work closely with the members of the UK and Global equity teams and across the wider business to leverage the significant resources available to the UK strategies. We are structured in sector hubs to facilitate debate and ensure a robust selection process. The individual will have sector coverage and generate ideas for the wider UK and Global Equity portfolios beyond their immediate direct fund responsibilities. We follow a rigorous research process to arrive at high conviction investment ideas with a strong emphasis on ESG and risk embedded in our process.

Skills and experience we’re looking for:

Experience as a UK Portfolio Manager, with an attributable track record of outperformance against relevant benchmarks and peer groups

Extensive experience focused on UK Stewardship / Responsible Investment across mid and large cap stocks

Healthcare sector experience desirable

Disciplined portfolio construction skills and benchmark aware with strong financial skills including financial modelling and analysis capability

Experience marketing to institutional or retail clients

What you’ll get for this role:

Generous pension scheme - Aviva will contribute up to 14%, depending on what you put in

Eligibility for annual performance bonus

Family friendly parental and carer’s leave

Generous holiday entitlement plus bank holidays with the option to buy/sell up to 5 additional days

Up to 40% discount for Aviva products

Brilliant flexible benefits including electric cars

Aviva Matching Share Plan and Save As You Earn scheme

21 volunteering hours per year

In this role you’ll be ‘Certified’ under the Financial Conduct Authority / Prudential Regulation Authority’s Senior Managers and Certification Regime (SMCR). This means that we’ll need to complete some regulatory background checks on you before you take up your role and we’ll need to ask you some questions on an annual basis to make sure you remain ‘fit and proper’ and competent to carry out your role. We’ll provide training on what holding a SMCR role means when you join us and annually thereafter.

Aviva is for everyone:

We are inclusive and welcome everyone – we want applications from people with diverse backgrounds and experiences.

Excited but not sure you tick every box? Research tells us that women, particularly, feel this way. So, regardless of gender, why not apply. And if you’re in a job share just apply as a pair.

We flex locations, hours and working patterns to suit our customers, business, and you.

Most of our people are smart working – spending around 60% of their time in our offices and 40% at home.

We interview every disabled applicant who meets the minimum criteria for the job.
