Media Super cuts CIO position
Declining membership as a result of major redundancy programs at Fairfax newspapers and elsewhere appears to have had its corollary at industry fund Media Super which has reduced the size of its executive team.
The fund has dispensed with the services of its chief investment officer, John Glass.
The fund confirmed on Thursday that it had moved to consolidate activities under its chief executive, Graeme Russell.
Media Super is facing a number of changes in circumstances where one of its board members, Media Entertainment and Arts Alliance federal secretary, Chris Warren, has signaled his intention to depart his position with the union.
