The industry superannuation fund representing those employed by non-Government schools — NGS Super — has launched a rebrand entailing a new logo, new website, refreshed advertising and direct member communication.
The relaunch, announced today, was described by fund chief executive Anthony Rodwell-Ball as aimed at highlighting the fund's dedication to safeguarding the financial security of those who work hard to serve others.
"We wanted to evolve the brand to better encompass all of our members," he said."While established funds are sometimes reluctant to change their branding, NGS Super believes it can lead to an improved member experience.
"NGS Super provides financial security for those who work hard to serve their local community through education, care-giving and social welfare. Our refreshed brand values represent our commitment to inspire, educate and empower our members throughout their careers and into retirement," Rodwell-Ball said.
