  • Peter Kelly, with over 20 years of experience in group insurance and digital strategy, joins as Head of Tender Propositions - Growth.
  • Wayne Willis Davis leads the newly created Corporate team, aiming to strengthen AIA's corporate partner relationships and engagement.

CEO Damien Mu emphasized the company's vision to make Australia the healthiest and best-protected nation, highlighting the importance of these leadership changes in achieving product excellence and superior member outcomes.

These developments reflect AIA Australia's proactive approach to addressing the evolving needs of the superannuation industry and its members, ensuring the delivery of comprehensive and innovative group insurance solutions.
