In detail:
Rhian is the Superannuation and Retirement Lead for Baringa’s Australian financial services practice.
Rhian has more than 17 years of experience in the superannuation and retirement sector, both in funds and specialist advisory roles. She previously spent six years at KPMG, and prior to that was Head of Experience Transformation and Head of Customer Engagement at NAB.
Rhian supports clients across strategic consulting, governance and operations advisory, and large– scale transformational change and delivery. She particularly enjoys working with clients through complex problems, understanding the points of intersect between trustee governance and the evolving operating environment to ensure risk and regulation, longer term sustainability objectives, and member outcomes are best considered.
Outside of work Rhian loves spending time with her family, which often involves being on or around water. She enjoys sailing on Sydney Harbour on her J-70 one design (Jabiru) and loves travel, food (eating and cooking), reading, walking whenever she can!
