Rory Irvine
Warakirri Asset Management has appointed Rory Irvine as a Business Development Manager responsible for expanding the firm’s relationships in the Retail Advisory, Family Office and High Net Worth markets across New South Wales, the ACT and Queensland.
Based in the firm’s Sydney office and working alongside Trent Faehndrich who joined Warakirri’s Distribution team in early 2025, Rory joins at an exciting time for the business as it continues to broaden its footprint across its agriculture and equities offerings.
Warakirri Head of Distribution, Stuart Devlin said: “We’re delighted that Rory has joined Warakirri as we continue to build the firm’s relationships across the retail and wholesale markets. Rory’s client-first approach aligns well with sophisticated advisers who are demanding differentiated, quality solutions.”
“Our recently announced strategic partnership with ClariVest Asset Management to bring a new global small companies solution to market alongside our existing Emerging Markets Equities and Australian Equities capabilities managed by Northcape Capital, strongly positions us in the advisory market,” Mr. Devlin added.
The Warakirri Global Emerging Markets Fund recently surpassed $200 million in funds under management with Warakirri experiencing sustained inflows over the course of the last 12 months as investors sought differentiated sources of return outside of developed markets, while the ClariVest Global Small Companies Fund launched in August of last year and exclusively distributed by Warakirri recently achieved an inaugural “Recommended” rating from Zenith.
Rory brings more than 10 years’ experience working in financial services across asset management and investment distribution. He joined Warakirri from Nanuk Asset Management having previously held roles at Ellerston Capital and AMP Capital. Rory holds a Master of Commerce majoring in Finance from UNSW and a Bachelor of Commerce from Macquarie University.
