Stuart Larke, who makes the move from Telstra Super where he was a senior portfolio manager, will join a team of three at Kardinia Capital led by Mark Burgess and Kristiaan Rehder.
Before working at Telstra Super, Mr Larke was a portfolio manager and Australian equities analyst at Myer Family Company.
He has also held a number of senior analyst roles at Goldman Sachs/JB Were and KPMG.
Mr Rehder said 2016 would be a busy year for the Bennelong Kardinian Absolute Return Fund, which is a long/short Australian equity product.
“Stuart brings with him a wealth of experience in both stock analysis and portfolio construction, and he will further strengthen the team’s capabilities,” Mr Rehder said.
