Security Operations Analyst

LGT Crestone was formed around a clear and uncompromising vision – to bring global best practice in building institutional quality investment portfolios to Australian clients.

With a shared passion for building an uncompromised business – we created something new from the ground up.  A chance to leave behind the things that weren’t working, while enhancing the things that were.  Our authentic and personalised client-first commitment.  Our entrepreneurial spirit.  Our focus in best-in-class advice.  And our intimate understanding of the Australian private wealth landscape.

In 2022 we became a part of the LGT Group, who shared our entrepreneurial spirit, long-term approach and private-ownership model.  Today, with the global expertise, stability, and capability of LGT behind us, we can work without being reliant on markets or margins, with a singular focus on giving our clients the advice and deep expertise they need for generations to come.
