The top employers by tracked open roles across superannuation, wealth, advice and platforms — refreshed weekly.
Industry appointments and open roles, updated weekly.
The sector's regulatory architecture is changing guard simultaneously. ASIC chair Joe Longo — who ran the commission for five years — departs 31 May, with deputy chair Sarah Court stepping up. APRA's deputy Margaret Cole exits end of June. And ASX managing director Helen Lofthouse is also stepping down in May. This is not crisis — it is a scheduled transition — but the timing adds uncertainty at exactly the wrong moment: Payday Super goes live 1 July, with employers and platforms still in final build. Three major oversight positions in flux during the biggest payroll system change in a generation is a risk worth watching.
On the talent side, the flow is positive. Ben Facer — NGS Super's Deputy CEO — moves to Russell Investments to lead their superannuation division, continuing the professionalisation of the asset consulting tier we saw with JANA's Wacher hire. AustralianSuper's CIO search remains the most consequential open vacancy in the sector: Mark Delaney's retirement at end of June leaves a $365B mandate without a permanent leader. Expect an announcement in the next fortnight or this search becomes a distraction. The caution in market conversations is real but not alarming — this is a sector managing overlapping transitions, not one in distress.
