Enjoying access to senior women in the superannuation sector can often be challenging, so when there is an event that invites you to network with real industry leaders who are willing to share candid insights into their roles, responsibilities and career pathways, it’s an opportunity you won’t want to miss!
In a time when career growth and connection matter more than ever, Women in Super’s Speed Mentoring offers members a rare opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the ways these female leaders navigate challenges, make decisions and shape the future of super.
We’ve curated a diverse range of exceptional women in the industry who are happy to share their unique insights and learnings with our members. In small group rotations, you will learn how these inspiring women developed their careers and achieved their success, how to create a realistic work/life balance, and anything else you want to know, but haven't had the opportunity to ask!
You’ll be part of intimate group conversations designed to enable each participant to experience genuine connections and interactions with 2-3 mentors, selected at random, through timed 20-minute rotations within each group. We’ve purposefully created small groups so that each individual participant can experience multiple opportunities for questions and meaningful discussion.
This year’s mentors include:
Mimi Cavaye - Head of Australia Compliance & Risk, Franklin Templeton Investments
Petra Fawcett - Transformation and Change Leader, Mercer Super
Potta Findikidis - Group Head of Brand and Marketing, Cbus Super
Jorden Lam - GM / Head of Member Services & Operations, HESTA
Sarah Maloof - Chief of Staff, GROW Inc
Kate Misic - Acting Chief Investment Officer / Head of Alternative Investments, TelstraSuper
Jess Rix - Head of Member and Adviser Help Centre, Aware Super
Nikki Schimmel - Chief Risk Officer, Vision Super
Julie Watkins - Chief People Officer, UniSuper
Our speed mentoring events have been incredibly popular in the past, and because there are limited places available, you’ll need to book quickly to secure your spot.
Each of our chosen mentors has a wealth of knowledge, and with plenty of time for general networking throughout the event, this is sure to be a valuable experience for everyone involved.
This event is for members-only
