Australian Unity has announced the appointment of Benson Saulo as its new head of partnerships, wealth and capital markets.
He would take up a newly created role from Australian Unity’s brand team where he has been Head of Community since 2016.
Also, in his new role, Saulo would focus on growing community-based partnerships as well as building and managing stakeholder and investor relationships as the business augments its sustainable investing offering.
According to Geraldine Barlow, Executive General Manager Investments, Australian Unity, the appointment would be a boost for the team given the evolution of the business and growth in its sustainable investment offering.
“Benson’s experience, outstanding leadership skills, and strong connections with a large number of community organisations will be instrumental as we continue to develop our partnerships and offering in the responsible investment space,” Barlow said.
The fund’s inaugural chief retirement officer is looking to establish a new venture.
The financial services company has made two senior appointments to its super and investments leadership team.
The $89 billion fund has named co-chief investment officers following the resignation of Andrew Lill earlier this month.
The industry body is adding 25 years of financial services experience to its leadership team with a new appointment.
