MLC's general manager of corporate superannuation Helen Murdoch is returning to Mercer in a new role, sales and commercial acceleration leader.

Increasingly, our clients are coming to us with complex needs, and we have the ability to add greater value by bringing the diverse capabilities and solutions across our business together.

In her new role, Murdoch will be responsible for the business' growth agenda. She previously spent seven years with Mercer as a partner and head of products and solutions management. She's also held roles with Russell Investments and Sovereign Investment Research.
