The former chief investment officer of Escala Partners and JBWere has joined a Melbourne boutique in an investment advisory role. Roux left Escala in August 2019 after six years with the firm, following US-based Focus Financial Partners taking a stake in it in February 2019. She has now joined Conscious Investment Management’s investment advisory committee, alongside Kate Temby who previously worked as Goldman Sachs Asset Management’s Australia Pacific institutional sales and is now a partner at social bond investor Affirmative Investment Management. Conscious is an impact investing boutique distributed by Channel Capital. It was set up late last year by former Goldman Sachs investor Matthew Tominc.
