Mine Wealth + Wellbeing expands team
Mine Wealth + Wellbeing (Mine) is focusing on technology, innovation and engagement with the appointment of two new executives as leaders of the super fund's strategy refresh, which is placing digital capability as a front running area of interest.
Former Westpac financial planning state general manager, Glenda Abraham, has been appointed to the position of chief engagement officer, while the new position of chief technology and innovation officer would be filled by Strategik founder and director, Dr Adrian Colquhoun.
"These appointments will enable our organisation to meaningfully put members at the heart of everything we do and better leverage digital capability to meet their needs," Mine chief executive, Harry Mitchell said.
"I am excited about the strength Adrian and Glenda will bring to Mine in order to support our purpose of delivering an exceptional retirement for our members."
In the position of chief engagement officer, Abraham would take responsibility for key member and stakeholder facing teams. Prior to her position with Westpac, Abraham spent five years with the Commonwealth Bank (CBA) in various roles.
Colquhoun's position would see him utilise experience in the areas of consultancy and entrepreneurship to take responsibility for technology and innovation capabilities across the organisation.
