MLC Super has bolstered its leadership team with three new appointments, further strengthening the business to support its ambition to become Australia’s most trusted and fastest-growing super fund.

These appointments bring together deep expertise and diverse perspectives that will accelerate the ability to deliver on our strategy and create exceptional outcomes for members.

Craig Weber will commence as Head of Education and Advice on 24 November delivering best-inclass education, advice and communication engagement initiatives to members. Craig brings more than 20 years’ experience across a range of senior roles at AMP, CFS, Zurich Financial Services and, most recently, as Head of Advice at Ignition.

Alex Kleiman joined as Director of Corporate Growth in May, bringing more than 25 years’ experience in superannuation across a range of growth and distribution roles. Most recently, he was Head of Group Distribution at MetLife Australia and has also held senior positions at Mercer and Plum.

Mandy Rashleigh was appointed Head of Client Relationships in June, overseeing the client relationship team for Insignia Financials’ employer superannuation offerings and is responsible for the execution of MLC Super’s employer value proposition. Mandy previously held senior positions at KPMG, NAB, and most recently at Westpac, as their Global Head of Non-Bank Financial institutions.

These new appointments add to the MLC Super leadership team, which also includes:

  • Jason Marler, General Manager, Product
  • Amalie White, General Manager, Operations and Partnerships
  • Lachlan East, General Manager, Risk

Dave Woodall, CEO MLC Super, said: “I’m delighted to welcome Craig, Alex and Mandy to the MLC Super leadership team. Their expertise and deep understanding of the industry will accelerate our ability to deliver on our strategy and provide exceptional outcomes for members around Australia. “As one of the largest workplace superannuation providers, with long-standing relationships with ASXlisted employers, MLC Super’s strong leadership team places us in good stead to help shape better superannuation outcomes for employers and members alike.

“These appointments bring together exceptional capability and vision and comes at an exciting time for MLC Super, following the completion of the first major milestone of our transition of a range of administration and technology functions to SS&C in July, and the relaunch of the MLC brand and an improved direct-to-consumer offering in October.”
