UniSuper appoints advice head
UniSuper has hired Andrew Gregory as head of financial advice and education.
His previous roles include general manager of MLC Advice, where he led NAB’s national employed advice network and general manager of NAB’s regional retail banking network in Victoria and Tasmania.
In the role, he would be responsible for education, guidance and advice (including general, intrafund and comprehensive personal) to drive member engagement.
He would also focus on uplifting UniSuper’s advice offering including developing and implementing the advice strategy and exploring the provision of cost-effective digital advice.
The fund said it anticipated demand for advice to increase in light of the fund’s expanded membership.
Gregory said: “Financial advice is one of the most important investments an Australian can make in their future. Taking the time to seek advice today can transform your future. That’s why UniSuper is such an exciting fund to be part of, with its advice offering central to its long-term strategy.
“I’m delighted to join a team which prioritises access to affordable, accessible and high-quality advice for all UniSuper members – and I’m looking forward to bringing my knowledge and experience to help deliver retirement outcomes for members.”
