Join Perpetual Corporate Trusts Innovation Company & one of Australia’s leading Institutional Fiduciary and Digital Solutions providers
Perpetual Group is an ASX-listed company (ASX:PPT) headquartered in Sydney, Australia, currently consisting of 11 leading brands across three distinct businesses: Asset Management, Wealth Management and Corporate Trust.
Following the completion of a comprehensive Strategic Review in May 2024, it was announced that Perpetual Limited will become a standalone Asset Management business and has entered into an agreement with an affiliate of Kohlberg Kravis Roberts (KKR) who will acquire the Corporate Trust and Wealth Management businesses.
The role will be joining the Perpetual Digital Client Service team which is responsible for providing operational and technical support across a mix of legacy and cloud technologies supporting the banking and finance industry.

Perpetual Digital, Perpetual Corporate Trust’s innovation company, was founded just six years ago, with a bold strategic vision to take forward the history of Perpetual’s 138-year-old, trusted brand into the next phase of evolution. This meant leveraging PCT’s unparalleled experience and expertise as a trustee, custodian and data services company and transforming that capability into a leading Digital SaaS platform business. The prestigious AFR recognition is confirmation Perpetual Digital is delivering on its vision.
Perpetual Digital’s suite of next generation software as a service (SaaS) applications and data analytics platforms not only underpin PCT’s long-standing critical role in the industry, but also enables PCT’s banking and financial services clients to deliver their own digital transformations to automate key finance, treasury, funding, credit, risk and investment processes.
