Kate Festini

Director - Strategy, Risk & Operations | Wealth

The multi-talented Kate joined BlueRock in December 2017 and has shaped how the BlueRock Wealth team operates ever since. She came in with a background in client services and experience as a system administrator for a large industry superfund. That mix of people skills and operational thinking is something of a super power.

She started at BlueRock as practice manager for our private wealth team and has since grown into the role of Director of Strategy, Risk & Operations. With an MBA behind her, she brings strategic thinking to the day-to-day, keeping the Wealth division focused and moving in the right direction.

Kate studied a Bachelor of Arts majoring in Creative and Professional Writing, and she still loves to read at any opportunity. Music is Kate's other big obsession. Her favourite movie growing up was Empire Records, and she would have loved to have met David Bowie before he departed this earthly realm.

BlueRock acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the lands and waters on which we work, live and gather - including the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation in Melbourne, and First Nations communities across Australia and beyond. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging, and honour the rich cultures and ongoing connection to Country.
