CareSuper chief executive, Julie Lander, has been named Fund Executives Association Limited (FEAL) 2022 Fund Executive of the Year.
The award recognised Lander’s leadership, passion for the profit-to-member superannuation industry and commitment to improving the retirement outcomes of CareSuper members as well as all Australians. It also recognised her innovative mindset and ability to grow the fund.
Lander was nominated by the CareSuper executive team and chair and competed against other super fund CEOs and executives.
FEAL chair, Brian Delaney, said Lander had been an exceptional leader over the last few years as the COVID-19 pandemic had dramatically affected the workplace and member expectations.
“Providing the best possible service to members whilst contributing to positive changes in the super industry more broadly makes her the perfect recipient of this award,” he said.
When accepting the award, Lander said: “It is an honour and very humbling to have even been nominated for this award, let alone winning it.
“As CEO of CareSuper, I have been supported by executives, management, staff and directors both past and present to deliver on our purpose and objectives. So I do look on this award as one for the team because no one achieves by themselves.”
