TelstraSuper has announced that Sabine Taylor, who was appointed as its interim chief risk officer in February, will transition into a permanent version of the role, effective immediately.
Prior to her interim appointment, Taylor was head of wrap operations at Colonial First State and had previously held roles at UniSuper, AMP and the Commonwealth Bank. She had over 25 years’ industry experience in risk, compliance, operations, governance, fraud and security.
TelstraSuper chief executive, Chris Davies, welcomed the permanent appointment, saying that Taylor had proven to be a great fit for the super fund.
“We’re pleased to appoint someone of such calibre and look forward to working with her to ensure any form of risk that the fund and members are exposed to are appropriately managed,” he added.
The Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (ASFA) has announced changes to its structure, marking an “exciting phase of growth” for the organisation.
The $74 billion fund has welcomed an experienced CIO to lead its investment strategy.
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.
