Job Details

As an innovative and self-motivated leader, you will be tasked with providing insight into how emerging technologies in transport – such as electric vehicles, autonomous vehicles, ridesharing and fleet management – will influence our businesses and the investments and opportunities we pursue.  This is a new capability to assist established and emerging Macquarie businesses. 

In this role you will have the opportunity to work on leading edge projects in new transport technologies, and will:  

  • identify potential disruption and influence pursuit of opportunities in new transport technologies across Macquarie; 

  • advise the Group on how these technologies will impact Macquarie including both our current and future investments; and 

  • advise on the potential implementation of these new technologies. 

You will be supported in this task by a global team of technology and finance industry specialists. 

The role will be based in London or New York. 

The scope of this role is global and will span all Macquarie interests. You will ideally have deep expertise developing technology solutions, strategy, commercial partnerships or mobility projects with a large Original Equipment Manufacturer, Tier 1 supplier, technology company or mobility start-up. Exceptional candidates from other backgrounds with a track record of major mobility projects are also encouraged to apply.  

Your prior experience will combine strong commercial skills with a deep expertise in relevant emerging transport technologies. You will have established relationships with key market participants, innovators, researchers, and technology developers, and be able to influence at CXO level. You will be a collaborative worker with a learning mindset and comfortable with big picture thinking and ambiguity. 

While the focus of this opportunity is on the knowledge, communication, advisory and research skills you possess, it will be advantageous to have technical hands-on experience with these technologies as well. 

The Corporate Operations Group brings together specialist support services in Digital Transformation & Data, Technology, Market Operations, Human Resources, Business Services, Business Improvement & Strategy, Brand & Marketing and the Macquarie Group Foundation.

Company

Working at Macquarie

We believe in providing a positive environment for all our staff that is innovative and inspiring. For our female staff, Macquarie’s senior leaders are actively involved in increasing the representation of females in management positions.  In June 2014, we launched a mentoring programme for females, with the following two objectives:

  • Address female retention rates at Senior Manager level and improve our diverse pipeline of talent;
  • Engage female Senior Managers by providing tools and support around their personal development;

The programme pairs up Senior Managers with Directors, who meet on a monthly basis, and are supported by active group sessions (bi-monthly) with an external facilitator.

We select some of the brightest minds to help us in solving complex challenges for our clients.  We recognise that recruiting talent from varied backgrounds is essential to improving our understanding of the marketplace, and enhancing creativity and problem-solving capabilities in our businesses.

Because of this, our commitment to you is to create a diverse and inclusive workplace regardless of age, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, ethnicity or cultural background.

We make this commitment not only because it is the right thing to do but it opens up a world of opportunity, securing the future of our people, our success and our business
