UniSuper is the Superannuation Fund that covers the overwhelming majority of employees at Macquarie University.

An important part of the Fund governance is the Consultative Committee, made up of employer and employee representatives.

Macquarie University has two employee representatives on the Consultative Committee, one elected by academic staff and one elected by non-academic staff. Representatives serve a four year term.

As the current academic staff representative has concluded their existing term, the University is calling for nominations for one academic staff representative position on the UniSuper Consultative Committee from eligible academic staff.

Who is eligible?

Nominations are only open to employees who are members of either the Defined Benefit Division or Accumulation 2.  Staff members can check their Division membership details via their UniSuper statement or UniSuper online.

How to nominate

Nominations open on Tuesday 13 July and will close at 5pm on Tuesday 20 July, 2021.

In the event that there is more than one nomination for each position, an electronic ballot will be held.

Eligible staff can self-nominate for either role, by emailing their nomination to hr.director@mq.edu.au.

The nomination should specify the staff member’s name, Macquarie University staff number and their Fund Division membership.
