Introducing your Staff Super Scheme new member-elected Trustee Directors

Voting for two new member-elected Trustee Directors closed on 12 April 2022 and we received just under 800 votes over the three weeks that voting was open. Thank you to everyone who participated in the election process!

Congratulations to Brendon Johnston and Shelley Powell who were the two highest polling candidates and have been declared elected!

We are currently in the process of updating documentation and will include more information about your new Trustee Directors in the next newsletter.

We would also like to thank Suzanne Crowther who stood for election and volunteered to assist in the future management of the Scheme.

Please join us in welcoming our new Trustee Directors!

Background:

The Scheme is managed by a trustee company (Trustee), in accordance with the Scheme’s Trust Deed. The Trust Deed requires the Trustee to have seven directors (Trustee Directors). Two Trustee Directors are chosen by you, the members, and the remaining five are appointed by Westpac (including one who is an independent trustee licenced by the Financial Markets Authority). You can read about all the current Trustee Directors here. You can also read a summary of the role and duties of a Trustee Director here.
