GM HR and Internal Communications joins TCorp

NSW Treasury Corporation (TCorp), the financial and investment management provider for the NSW Government, has announced a suite of new leadership appointments, including Katy McDonald as general manager HR and internal communications, effective 10 January 2017.

She has experience in both legal and banking environments and joined TCorp from Sydney Opera House, where she was director people and culture. She previously held HR leadership positions with Minter Ellison and Westpac.

Joining McDonald in the new leadership team is Stewart Brentnall, as chief investment officer; Paul Verschuer as GM financial markets; Katharine Seymour, as GM client relationships; and Kevin Masling as chief risk officer.

Commenting on the appointments, TCorp CEO, David Deverall, said that as TCorp assumed significant scale as an asset manager, it was important it had the leadership and executive capabilities to match.

"These appointments bolster TCorp's organisational capabilities in key areas of our operations, both capital markets-facing and internally. Each of the appointments brings highly relevant experience gained at the coalface of capital markets and financial services, in Australia and in some cases internationally. We look forward to their contribution as we position TCorp for growth."
