Chris is Head of Business Development and is responsible for promoting the growth of the DMA business while ensuring he maintains the great level of service that our clients are used to. Hailing from the UK, Chris is occasionally mistaken as a backpacker due to his tendency to spend much of his free time surfing the Eastern beaches of Sydney and reliably informing all that he “Slays” – whatever that means... On the desk, Chris is known to most and interacts with clients on a daily basis. Chris has a long history in the markets and enjoys the interaction over the phone, via message, or in person. The perfect plus 1 at any corporate function.

Ensuring we have all corners of the Commonwealth covered, our native South African brings a wealth of experience to the team, having learned his craft around the world with stints in London and New York at Investment banks. Shaun is hands on the Dealing and DMA desk whilst also focusing on new projects for the business centred around innovation and growth. As Shaun would say: a “grudge” is a place where I park my car, in Rose Bay of course, and he remains one of the friendliest South African’s we know. Naturally, a rugby fan who loves the Boks, we knew there was something about him when we hired him and yes Shaun, we know, they are current World Champions yawwnnnnn.

The 2^nd longest-serving employee at Invast Global, Jush has recently had a statue erected in the office to celebrate the dedication he shows to his clients, most of whom have interacted with him at some level (this is not true but should be and management are responding to the note left in the staff suggestions box). Jush demonstrates a commitment to ensuring Invast clients receive the highest level of personal service in times when decisive action is required. With family roots in the UK, now calling Australia home, Jush ensures Invast’s clients remain our most important asset.

For an Australian Broker based in Sydney we only sport two true Blue Aussies on the desk and none Truer or Bluer than Nick. A long steeped family history in financial markets, Nick was born for this role. A key member of the DMA Dealing Desk Nick has a short history with the company but making big waves – yes another surfer from the Northern Beaches – Nick possesses insight and a traders mentality and adds a little bit of Australiana to our disparate team.
