First Australians Capital is a unique matched investment model that aims to bring together private sector, government and philanthropic investors to invest in high-potential Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander enterprises. Our vision is to create a new economy driven by First Australians. We do this by backing the cultural, creative and economic strengths of First Australians to become full, free agents in driving their own economic futures.
Reporting to the Associate Director - Investments within FAC’s Investments Team, the Investment Analyst will work on a range of investment deals at any point in time across the life cycle of proposal development, from due diligence to tailoring of finance options and the development of investment proposals. The Investment Analyst will work collaboratively with the FAC’s Business Advisory team, contributing to building the capacity and pipeline of the Indigenous business sector in Australia.
Candidates should be interested and motivated to work in a not-for-profit for-purpose organisation that strives towards delivering excellent outcomes for Indigenous businesses across Australia. An ideal candidate would be industry agnostic, able to work with business across varying stages of lifecycles (start-up, growth, mature), and utilise a diverse set of FAC financial products to best support growth trajectories.
The role includes credit analysis, ownership and delivery of investment proposals from a debt lens, risk assessment and mitigation, and monitoring and tracking of post-funding investments conducted from a relationship-based approach. Great communicators, collaborators and curious minds are encouraged to learn more and apply.
On a full-time basis, the preferred location of the role is Melbourne. However, applicants from Brisbane, Sydney or Newcastle (or within one hour of these locations) will also be considered. There are some expectations on interstate travel when required. Flexible working arrangements are respected.
This role requires a combination of credit skills and financial modelling experience gained in banking, funds management or other relevant industries. The role will suit a candidate who is well acquainted with investment appraisal techniques, business valuation methods, and has a strong understanding of investment product placement, measurement, management and reporting. The ideal candidate will relish working directly with their customer, have exceptional stakeholder management skills and be able to collaborate effectively across different teams.
