I was attracted to Macquarie because of its premium reputation, industry leaders and expanding, diverse activities: I knew I could not get better finance related experience at any other company in Australia.
Working at Macquarie has been a great opportunity. I am continually learning, especially because the business is always changing and developing. I work alongside the best people in the industry, people who invented a lot of the business models that others are now following.
Things never stand still at Macquarie. My work is characterised by variety, new business activities, new challenges and new events.
Macquarie’s growth and overseas expansion mean that many people take the opportunity to gain international experience. I joined Macquarie as a graduate in 2004 and have been promoted numerous times since then. In addition, I have transferred to Macquarie’s London office and am enjoying the new challenges and experiences that come with working in a new country.

I wanted a challenging role in a dynamic, high profile environment and at Macquarie, I certainly found it. The most enjoyable aspects of my job are the people, the diversity, and the opportunities to work on new transactions.
I am the finance manager for two listed infrastructure funds, and since I've been in this role, both funds have acquired companies and raised capital. I found these transactions enjoyable, because they were both interesting and challenging. My role has also given me the opportunity to travel offshore at various times, and I recently assisted with the establishment of one of Macquarie's new funds located in the Middle East.
Macquarie differentiates itself by the calibre of its people and by always being involved in new activities. It is really flexible in helping its people achieve their career goals, and the excellent mentoring and training programs ensure you progress the way you want to.
