Policy head, Jordan George, has announced he has resigned from his role at the SMSF Association which he held for the past seven-and-half years, effective 23 August.
Following this, George would be re-joining Federal Treasury, which was described as the next logical career step, given his interest in all aspects of superannuation policy.
The SMSF Association said he had made a valuable contribution to both the Association and the broader self-managed super fund (SMSF) sector, especially in the policy area.
George led the work on important policy issues including the financial system inquiry, the 2016 superannuation reforms, the establishment of the Financial Advisers Standards and Ethics Authority (FASEA) and its educational and ethical standards, as well as the Financial Services Royal Commission and the Productivity Commission superannuation review.
SMSF Association would look to appoint a suitably qualified and experienced replacement later this year.
The fund has announced three executive-level appointments, including a new chief investment officer.
The super fund has tapped a former Vanguard and Plato Investment Management executive to lead its fixed interest team.
The firm has grown its wealth management team with an experienced distribution specialist.
The $36 billion fund has announced the appointment of an experienced public sector executive leader.
