AustralianSuper deputy chair Elana Rubin has joined software provider Bravura as a non-executive director on the company's board.
"Bravura is a software provider to 44 superannuation funds. We wanted a director with the extensive industry superannuation experience that Elana has to assist us in servicing our local clients," Bravura group chief executive Iain Dunstan said.
Rubin is director of the Transport Accident Commission, Industry Super Property Trust and Hotel Leisure & Tourism Trust.
As executive director investments with the Australian Retirement Fund, Rubin managed $10 billion in funds under management.
In May 2006, ARF merged with Superannuation Trust of Australian to create AustralianSuper.
"Bravura has made significant inroads in its home markets. I look forward to participating in the critical decision making processes to be contemplated by the board of directors to meet Bravura's business goals," Rubin said.
Bravura will be upgrading its Australian clients to the next phase of its technology and Dunstan said the project will involve input from Rubin.
In January, Bravura developed the first UK independent financial adviser-owned and designed wrap for financial services company Nucleus.
In March, the company announced a strategy to expand in Asia, including plans to increase 47 person facility in Chennai, India, to 100 people in 2007.
"We will be looking to hire another director by the end of the year to help us with our international strategy," Dunstan said.
Bravura has two executive directors and four non-executive directors. Globally the company manages $800 billion in funds under management.
