Tuesday, November 11th 2025

Booster has appointed Diana Gordon as a senior portfolio manager in the investment management team.

Gordon’s most recent role was at the Financial Markets Authority (FMA) where she was Head of Investment Management.

Her career has spanned roles in New Zealand at Kiwi Wealth and international positions where she managed fixed interest funds in New York and London.

Booster chief executive Di Papadopoulos says Booster is excited to welcome someone of Gordon’s breadth and depth of experience into the team.

Booster has a strong record of delivering both innovation and returns across its investment lines.

Booster’s Socially Responsible High Growth fund holds the top position for 10-year returns in the Morningstar Aggressive fund category. Booster’s Geared Growth fund has also been a long-term performer.

"Delivery of outcomes like these takes talent and dedication. We're delighted to be adding Diana's experience and capabilities to the Booster team," Papadopoulos says.

Diana Gordon says Booster’s ability to combine innovation and purpose is a key factor in her joining the company.
