 She will be based in Sydney and reports to Vijay Srinivasan, head of wholesale.

Metcalfe joins from Schroders where she was a business development account manager. Prior to this she was partnerships manager with Livewire Markets. She also spent six years at Fidelity International in the UK and Sydney in account management and marketing roles. Prior to this she worked with Perpetual and Anittel in marketing and events roles.

Srinivasan says Metcalfe brings to the role over a decade’s worth of experience in marketing and distribution across a broad range of financial service enterprises.

“Sophie has strong technical knowledge and a good understanding of the needs of financial advisers. These strong links, and her reputation for delivering outstanding service to the financial advice community, make her an excellent choice for the role,” Srinivasan said.

In her new role, Metcalfe will work with Srinivasan and the broader distribution team to cultivate strong relationships with advisers across the country and in so doing, increase awareness of Maple-Brown Abbott’s capabilities across asset classes.

“Sophie’s work with the Schroders Investment Education Community in particular demonstrates her ability to communicate and work with financial advisers by delivering valuable insights,” Srinivasan said.
