SuperConcepts makes senior appointments in growth division

Sarah Pressler joins the company as national manager of key accounts, and Garry Johnston has been promoted to national manager of software sales.

SuperConcepts general manager of growth, sales and marketing Annette Sheppard said it has been a huge year of development for SuperConcepts with the launch of the latest iteration of its SMSF software, SuperMate.

“We also see increasing opportunity within the advised space and are confident that Sarah’s breadth of knowledge and experience will strengthen our ability to add value to the industry,” said Ms Sheppard.

Ms Pressler will have oversight over key accounts as well as SMSF sales in Western Australia and South Australia.

SuperConcepts said Ms Pressler has deep commercial insight, which stems from her experience working with organisations across a variety of industries to find solutions to increase profitability. 

Ms Pressler said she looks forward to leveraging her existing relationships from her time working in the advised channel with AMP and hopes to build deeper connections with large licensees across the industry. 

“SuperConcepts’ refreshed service offering complements the needs of advisers, allows them to diversify their client base, and provides an SMSF model that satisfies the flexibility their clients now desire,” she said. 

“I’ll be working closely with national key accounts in need of an SMSF partner to reduce compliance load and risk in their organisation.”

Mr Johnston, a qualified accountant, previously acted as state manager sales for Queensland.  

“It was a natural progression for us to appoint someone to own software sales and Garry’s experience as an SMSF software user allows him to really understand the needs of SuperMate clients,” Ms Sheppard said.

“It’s pivotal for us to not only embrace the momentum we’re seeing but provide support to the opportunity and I’m confident that Sarah and Garry will do just that.”
