Jo has been a member of the FEAL Finance Committee since 2013 and will become Chair of the Finance Committee.

Jane Perry, Chair of FEAL, welcomed the new directors and thanked the outgoing directors.

“Jo and Damian were approached to join the Board on the basis of their extensive experience and track record in the super and investment space. This depth of experience will see them make a valuable contribution to FEAL and to our professional development and education initiatives,” said Jane.

“Through the COVID-19 pandemic, superannuation has remained central to the financial resilience of many Australians, and an important part of the national agenda. Similarly, in this period of unprecedented change, FEAL has remained important to the executives who serve superannuation fund members. The new directors join us to continue to provide professional development and ongoing education that is high quality and easy to access, wherever and however our members may be working,” she said.

Robyn Petrou and Debby Blakey have stepped down from the FEAL board effective 1 July. Robyn has also been Chair of the FEAL Finance Committee since 2015.

Jane thanked Robyn and Debby for their Board tenure and service to FEAL through a period of great change for funds.

“Robyn has been on the board since 2008 and Debby since 2014. During their tenure, Robyn and Debby have been active and passionate contributors to FEAL. They both have a deep understanding of the superannuation and retirement sector and we are very grateful to them for their significant contribution to the professional development of fund executives”.

“I am confident Jo and Damian will make a significant contribution as we continue our mission to be the chosen provider of professional development for today’s executives, and tomorrow’s leaders,” said Jane.
