David Stuart joined Tasplan, the Hobart, Tasmania-based super fund with more than A$9.5 billion ($6.7 billion) and 138,000 members, as chief investment officer.
Mr. Stuart takes the helm for Tasplan's investments from Ian Lundy, who left in March to pursue other opportunities.
Mr. Stuart had been a partner and chief strategist for the Pacific region at Mercer Investments in Australia; he also was Mercer's lead consultant advising Tasplan for more than a decade, according to a Tasplan news release.
A Mercer spokeswoman said Mr. Stuart left the firm at the end of 2018.
