Corporate membership

As a not-for-profit organisation, the long-term relationships that we create with our corporate members and industry partners are critical to our success. They allow us to further our extensive networking, professional development, policy, research and advocacy work on behalf of women employed in the superannuation and wider financial services sectors.

Corporate membership involves an organisation signing up a number of their female employees who can then benefit from the extensive value additions that the Women in Super network offer. To learn more about how we can benefit you and your employees, contact Executive Officer, Sandra Buckley on sbuckley@womeninsuper.com.au.

Membership eligibility criteria

Women in Super was born out of the industry super fund movement. Members must be female and employed (or active) in the superannuation or wider financial services sectors.

As per the Constitution, the Board has the discretion to admit members who do not satisfy these requirements, and albeit rare, this is undertaken on a case by case basis.
