Andrew Fraser joins the board of Sunsuper

Sunsuper has appointed its third independent director, former Queensland politician, Andrew Fraser. Fraser is currently the head of strategy and investment at the National Rugby League. Prior to this he was elected to the Queensland Parliament in 2004 - a career that culminated in his appointment to the role as youngest ever Deputy Premier and Treasurer from 2007 to 2012. During this time he oversaw a $15billion privatisation program which included the float of QR National, now known as Aurizon, the $600 million sale of Queensland's forestry plantations, the $2.3 billion sale of the Port of Brisbane, and the $1.8 billion sale of the Abbot Point Coal Terminal.

Fraser also served as a board member of the Moorebank Intermodal Company from 2012 to 2014, as well as the Australian Sports Commission where he sat on that organisation's Finance, Audit and Risk Committee.

Joining Fraser as an independent director on the Sunsuper board this month is Social Ventures Australia executive director, Michael Traill AM.
