Scott Bradley

Legg Mason, one of the world’s largest funds management groups with A$962 billion in funds under management globally, is expanding its sales presence in Australia with the appointment of Scott Bradley as a National Business Development Manager.

Australian-born Bradley, who holds a Bachelor of Science (finance) degree from the Metropolitan State University of Denver, brings an impressive list of achievements to the position after seven years with Fidelity Investments in the US.

Andy Sowerby, Legg Mason Managing Director, said: “We have added Scott to our team to help us manage the growing demand for our funds. After 11 years of investment and relationship experience in the US, he brings a keen knowledge of markets, a strong background in financial planning and is an articulate communicator.

“These skills, when coupled with his impressive track record at Fidelity, make him a strong addition to our team, and one who I am sure will be valued by our adviser clients.”

Bradley added he was excited to join Legg Mason at a time when the Australian business was growing so strongly. “Over my career to date, I have been able to develop various skills and experiences across the financial advice spectrum, and I look forward to employing this knowledge to the advantage of Legg Mason and their clients.

“Although the US and Australian markets differ, there are many common denominators – the need to offer excellent client service, being able to offer quality financial solutions and having a strong insight on the markets – all of which are integral to the Legg Mason offering.”
