Ross Martin, the former chief executive of Media Super and an experienced advisor to corporate super funds, has joined the listed wealth manager and planning group Fiducian Financial Services in a new role as head of superannuation.
Martin left Media Super at the end of 2012 after nine years with the fund and its merger partner Print Super. He was succeeded by Graeme Russell from timber industry fund First Super.
Martin spent 16 years advising corporate funds for Aon Consulting, a division he established in Australia, before joining the industry fund movement in 2003.
He has been doing a range of consulting jobs over the past two years.
