Statewide Super Director departs for Government

Joe Szakacs has resigned from the board of Statewide Super, effective 18 February 2019.

The move follows Szakacs being elected to the South Australian House of Assembly in the by-election for the seat of Cheltenham on 9 February 2019, replacing former Premier Jay Weatherill.

Szakacs joined the Statewide Super board in January 2014 as a member representative, nominated by SA Unions. During his time with the fund, he sat on the investment committee and was chair of the fund's remuneration and nomination committee.
