“Justin Arter is an executive with a global reputation,” he said.
“ Given the growing sophistication of Cbus’ investments and leading position in providing products and services to improve the retirement outcomes of our members, Mr Arter is well placed to build on our strong foundations to guide the next period of Cbus’ journey.”
Mr Arter previously held senior roles at BlackRock including country head Australia and Head of Institutional Client Business for the UK, Middle East and Africa.
Before that he led the Victorian Funds Management Corporation.
Mr Arter also spent nearly 20 years in a range of senior positions at Goldman Sachs JB Were.
Most recently Mr Arter has consulted for major financial institutions, including ANZ Bank where he is consulting to its institution arm.
He will start in the role at Cbus in late August.
