The Commonwealth Superannuation Corporation (CSC) has appointed Phil Brown as a senior operational risk manager.
He previously held contract roles at the super fund for around a year and a half between July 2021 and December 2022.
Prior to this, Brown had spent over 15 years at MTAA Super as executive manager of investments, reporting directly to the CEO.
His vast experience would also include roles at the Private Health Insurance Administration Council (PHIAC), Medibank, and the Australian Bureau of Statistics.
Brown’s specialisation included institutional investment portfolio management, with a strong history of success managing portfolios primarily in a not-for-profit setting.
His expertise spanned due process and governance, stakeholder management and risk management, and accountability.
CSC looked after super funds designed for Australian Government and Defence Force employees including ADF Super and Military Super. It had entered into a Memorandum of Understanding last May with AvSuper to explore a potential merger, which has been scrapped.
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.
