Industry fund Prime Super has appointed its first member to its board of directors following its merger with health-based fund HIP earlier this year.
The fund announced it has appointed St Vincent's Private Hospitals' CEO Martin Day to the board, bringing the number of independent directors on the board to four.
Day was previously CEO of St Vincent's Private Hospital Melbourne for 11 years, and previously held senior positions with Mayne Health in Victoria, Western Australia and Tasmania.
