Industry super fund, Vision Super, has appointed Emma Brennan as the new head of human resources.
In announcing the appointment, Vision Super chief executive, Stephen Rowe, said the fund would benefit from Brennan’s extensive human resources experience, having previously worked for VicSuper and Telstra.
“In her most recent role at Telstra, Emma provided strategic business partnering to support the business strategy as the Telstra Enterprise team made several strategic acquisitions in the global products area,” he said.
“Her experience with change and transformation comes at an ideal time for Vision Super. Most industry funds have shrinking membership, but Vision Super is growing and we expect to grow even more strongly over the next few years.”
Rowe said having the right people in the right jobs is the key to a good growth strategy, and having Brennan on board will maintain Vision Super’s competitiveness.
