Colonial First State Investments (CFSIL) and Avanteos Investment Limited (AIL) has appointed John Brogden as an independent non-executive director to its boards, effective from 1 February, 2022.
Brogden was currently chief executive of Landcom and would step down from the role in April. He was previously managing director and CEO of the Australian Institute of company directors, CEO of the Financial Services Council, and CEO of Manchester Unity.
CFSIL and AIL acting chair, Greg Cooper, said: “I am delighted to welcome John as a director of Colonial First State.
“With his thorough understanding of superannuation and experience as a non-executive director, John will bring a deeply informed and strategic perspective as we pursue our purpose of helping Australians to have better retirement outcomes and achieve financial freedom.”
With the merger between Mine Super and TWUSuper in its late stages, the head of the soon-to-be combined fund is the latest to join ASFA’s board.
The fund has announced new additions to its trustee board.
Brighter Super has confirmed an executive search is underway to succeed its long-serving chief financial officer Garnett Hollier.
The research house has hired an experienced product specialist for its Australasian team.
