Two board members appointed at FEAL
The Fund Executives Association Ltd (FEAL) has appointed two board directors from Aware Super and Rest.
The new appointments would replace Deanne Stewart, Aware Super chief executive, and Ross Piper, chief executive of Australian Ethical.
Taking their place was Steve Hill who was group executive, people and workplace, at Aware Super where he had worked since 2013. He had previously worked at PricewaterhouseCoopers, ANZ and Commonwealth Bank.
Gemma Kyle joined Rest in 2018 and worked as the fund’s chief risk officer for risk and governance where she was responsible for leading a team that included strategic outsourcing, legal, audit and compliance.
Brian Delaney, chair of FEAL, said: “The FEAL board is committed to empowering world class leaders of not-for-profit superannuation funds by providing leading professional development and education, as well as deep connection opportunities.
“Steve and Gemma’s appointments reflect this. The executives we serve are specialists in their roles and having representation on the FEAL board from across the different executive roles is part of our strategy to value to our members.
“We look forward to Steve and Gemma’s contributions to the FEAL board and recognise and thank Deanne and Ross for their input. As FEAL has re-engaged and expanded its suite of events and offerings coming out of the COVID-19 pandemic, both Deanne and Ross’ considered contributions and insights have set us up well to continue to support today’s superannuation fund leaders.”
The FEAL board currently consisted of Lisa Samuels, chief experience officer at HESTA, Paul Watson, group executive member experience at Hostplus, Belinda Ray, chief audit executive at AustralianSuper as well as CEOs Jo Townsend, Damian Wills and Chris Davies from Funds SA, BUSSQ and TelstraSuper.
FEAL, led by Katrina Bacon, provided executive education and professional development for fund executives at not-for-profit super funds.
