The fund has confirmed two executive departures and a new chief member role as it reorganises its senior leadership team.
legalsuper has confirmed a reorganisation of its senior executive team, creating a new chief member officer role as two executives departed at the end of 2025.
Chief executive Luke Symons said the changes coincided with the departures of chief commercial officer Colin Adamson and chief marketing officer Louise Eyres, both of whom left the fund at the close of 2025.
According to Symons, both executives departed having made “considerable strategic, operational and organisational contributions” to legalsuper.
“Colin is a genuine strategic thinker. He has done an outstanding job applying his commercial intellect and operational experience to driving member growth, services, solutions and importantly member satisfaction.
“And while he was given the opportunity to be considered for the new chief member officer role, Colin has determined he would be seeking a Sydney-based role rather than continuing to commute to Melbourne. He leaves with our gratitude for his contribution and very best wishes for the future.
“Louise also leaves with our gratitude and very best wishes. Our agreement with her acknowledged her existing non-executive director commitments and plans to focus on this area of her career into the future – with an agreed end date at the close of 2025,” Symons said.
“In her time here, Louise has combined her impressive commercial and strategic marketing expertise with outstanding leadership capabilities to build an enduring marketing endeavour within legalsuper upon which we are well-placed to continue expanding.”
Symons said the fund’s focus was now on maintaining strong momentum across key operational and organisational performance metrics.
“Our focus now is to maintain legalsuper’s strong momentum across all key operational and organisational performance metrics to take full advantage of achievements from the past three years to continue delivering growth, innovation and member service excellence.
“Accordingly, our chief member officer will bring a contemporary mix of digital and human capabilities and apply a highly dynamic and deeply member-focussed approach to their role in achieving this goal.”
The announcement comes as legalsuper continues to post strong investment results.
The fund was rated the top-performing super fund for FY24/25, with its MySuper Balanced option returning 12.56 per cent for the financial year.
For the first quarter of the 2025–26 financial year to 30 September 2025, legalsuper’s MySuper Balanced option delivered a 4.46 per cent return, again placing the fund at the top of SuperRatings’ All Funds and SR50 performance tables for the three-month period.
The fund said the results continued its long-term record of outperforming the SuperRatings All Funds median over one, three, five and 10 years.
