Sunsuper steps up corporate focus

Growing client base

By Christine St Anne

The $16 billion industry fund hires three people to its corporate business.


Sunsuper continues to boost its corporate growth strategy on the back of three hires to the fund.

The superannuation fund has hired Fiona Cairns, Libby O'Rourke and Clive Joss as customer relationship managers.

Cairns will be based in Cairns, O'Rourke will work on the Gold Coast and Joss will work in Queensland's Mackay district.

"We have been growing our corporate business and these appointments ensure we are well positioned to take advantage of every opportunity to continue to grow our client base in these regional markets," Sunsuper chief executive Tony Lally said.

The superannuation fund recently won the corporate superannuation businesses from Newcrest Mining and Unilever. The deals bring the value of Sunsuper's corporate business to more than $2 billion, with 40,000 members.

Lally said Sunsuper will continue to maintain its national strategy to increase its corporate business and is currently undertaking a strategic review on whether it needs to increase staff in the fund's Sydney and Melbourne offices.

"With the right mix of solid, long-term investment performance, competitive fees, as well as our ability to tailor our offer to meet the specific super needs of individual companies, Sunsuper continues to attract the business of the nation's biggest companies," Lally said.
