AustralianSuper has appointed Frank Ceravolo to the newly-created role of head of member advice.
Ceravolo joins Australia's biggest superannuation fund from Telstra Super, where he was Telstra Super Financial Planning national practice and training manager.
"He is responsible for developing the strategic direction of AustralianSuper's financial advice offering, as well as monitoring the overall performance of the various channels responsible for delivering the advice services," a spokesperson for the fund told Investor Weekly.
Ceravolo has also worked at Commonwealth Financial Planning, Perpetual Private Clients and financial planning firm PFS Premier Financial Solutions.
AustralianSuper announced in April that it had started a trial partnership with several financial advice firms, including Godfrey Pembroke, Matrix Planning Solutions, Dixon Advisory, Woods & Partners, Paul Moran and Switzer Financial Planning, to provide financial advice to members against a flat fee.
