Piper was chief executive of superannuation at Australian Ethical Investment and was previously chief executive of Christian Super.
He has 25 years of leadership and management experience and had served on the RIAA board for the past five years and deputy chair for the past two years.
He would replace Susheela Peres da Costa who had been chair for the past four years.
RIAA had also appointed Liza McDonald, head of responsible investment at Aware Super, who joined the board for the first time.
RIAA said: “A sincere thanks to Susheela, and a warm welcome to Ross and Liza - we look forward to continuing to drive RIAA's mission and working towards a healthy and sustainable society, environment and economy".
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.
