Supports business line strategies through the strategic assessment of new investment products and the current investment offering.

**About Vanguard**

More than 45 years ago, John C. Bogle had a vision to start an investment company that did things differently. A company with no external shareholders. Where all the profits were invested back into the business and used to lower costs. Evidently, it was as bold as it was brilliant. To this day, Vanguard Group still has no external shareholders. That means no share prices to protect, and no profits to generate for outside owners.

Today, Vanguard is one of the world's largest investment management companies, serving more than 50 million investors worldwide. For more than 25 years Vanguard Australia has been supporting individual investors, financial advisers, and superannuation members to achieve their long-term financial goals.

You will help to ensure our products are understood and well-regarded in the market by answering client queries, participating in product rating reviews, and supporting product positioning in the market.

- Supports the creation of dynamic content used to position Vanguard's investment products.
- Develops broad knowledge and awareness of the investment industry, competition, and Vanguard's fund line-up.
- Managing the Investment Product query database, by assigning and keeping track of queries. Utilise your knowledge and skills and team resources to respond to fund, adviser and market questions across our range of products.

Vanguard's continued commitment to diversity and inclusion is firmly rooted in our culture. Every decision we make to best serve our clients, crew (internally employees are referred to as crew), and communities is guided by one simple statement: "Do the right thing."

We believe that a critical aspect of doing the right thing requires building diverse, inclusive, and highly effective teams of individuals who are as unique as the clients they serve. We empower our crew to contribute their distinct strengths to achieving Vanguard's core purpose through our values.
