Former VicSuper chief executive, Michael Dundon, has been appointed as chief executive of CareSuper.
Dundon was chief executive of VicSuper, which had merged with Aware Super where Dundon was now working as a consultant, for almost a decade and was previously chief executive of ESSSuper.
He would take over from Julie Lander who was leaving CareSuper after more than two decades in March 2023.
CareSuper chair, Linda Scott, said: “CareSuper welcomes Michael at an exciting time for our award-winning Fund. As a proven superannuation leader, our members will benefit from his work to continue to grow CareSuper to be Australia’s leading challenger fund to the mega funds, offering Australians a diversity of fund sizes in the national interest.
“Julie has been a tremendous leader of CareSuper for over two decades having overseen significant growth in the fund over that time. She embodies our values and our commitment to members and has made a substantial contribution to the superannuation sector more broadly”.
