Industry superannuation fund Sunsuper has hired three people to its investment team, including one former asset consultant and two ex-fund managers.
The new hires, Suzanne Berman, Megan Chan and Bruce Tomlinson, swell Sunsuper's investment team to eight people.
Berman previously worked as an asset consultant with Mercer and senior portfolio manager with Citicorp. At Sunsuper she will focus on fixed income investments.
Colonial First State former manager of infrastructure Megan Chan will manage infrastructure and property investments at Sunsuper.
Prior to joining Sunsuper, Tomlinson worked with AMP Capital as an investment manager where he was responsible for the AMP insurance funds. At Sunsuper he will look at new opportunities in alternative investments.
The fund is now well placed to cover a wider range of asset classes in greater depth, Sunsuper chief investment officer David Hartley said.
Hartley said the pursuit of alternative investment opportunities were of particular importance in continuing to generate strong returns on members' behalf.
