MLC Life adds distribution and partnerships specialist

MLC Life Insurance has appointed Suzie Brown as general manager for MLC Wealth and corporate partnerships.

In her new role, Brown will build out the organisation's orporate distribution capabilities. She joins from Integrity Life where she was the GM of distribution. She previously held similar roles with TAL, Zurich, and Paragem.

Brown is one of several appointments made by MLC Life Insurance, including the promotion of Emily Wu to GM of fund partnerships and Craig Harrison as GM of product, pricing, and proposition.

"Insurance inside superannuation is experiencing significant change in light of COVID-19, and we need to ensure we're providing the right support and expertise to superfunds as they navigate their way through this period," said MLC Life Insurance chief group insurance officer Sean Williamson. "Our goal is to play a larger role in the group insurance market and genuinely challenge the more established group insurers.

"To do this we need to build our expertise and partnership credentials, and we're thrilled to appoint Suzie, Craig and Emily to our team. They have partnered with some of largest industry and retail superannuation funds and know what it means to see issues through the lens of our funds, trustees and members."
