On Tuesday, the asset manager confirmed that Andrew Creber will take over the role and will be based in Sydney.
Mr Creber, who has worked at JPMAM since 1998, most recently worked as its Asia-Pacific deputy chief administrative officer in Singapore and was responsible for the firm’s operations across the region.
“Andrew is a seasoned leader adept at delivering results, evidenced by his long track record of collaborative partnerships with functions across our business,” JPMAM’s Asia-Pacific CEO, Dan Watkins, said.
“With his extensive business execution experience, as well as his in-depth knowledge of our capabilities and our clients, Andrew is ideally positioned to lead our Australia business.”
Mr Creber has also previously worked as COO for JPMAM’s Australian assest management business.
“Australia is an important strategic growth market for JPMAM and I’m excited to build on the strong foundation and momentum already established by our local teams,” Mr Creber said.
“I’m looking forward to helping further strengthen our client relationships and investment capabilities. As part of this, we will accelerate our focus on providing industry-leading sustainable investment expertise and on continuing to expand our alternatives investment offerings, as clients increasingly focus on these two critical areas.”
