Mr Jarrott was previously Australian Portfolio Manager for Westchester, the agriculture investment farm of the TIAA-Nuveen Group.
“Warakirri is thrilled to have Steve join the team,” said Adrian Goonan, head of cropping and diversified agriculture.
“Steve will be responsible for leading the fund, including supporting further capital raising efforts, strategy refinement and implementation, asset acquisitions and portfolio management.”
The fund will own a diversified portfolio of investment grade Australian agricultural assets for the purpose of partnering and leasing to high-quality agricultural businesses.
