Super fund ex-finance head claims he was sacked for alleging bullying

A former head of finance at Spirit Super has launched court action against the superannuation fund ahead of its merger with CareSuper, saying he was unlawfully sacked for making bullying allegations against the fund’s chief financial officer.

His sacking came just a few weeks after Spirit Super and CareSuper announced a binding agreement in June to become a combined entity with $50 billion in funds under management and 500,000 members. Mr Hawes, 57, said he felt unduly criticised, “second guessed” and “micromanaged”, complaints he says he made to CEO Jason Murray when he felt the weekly meetings had deteriorated to the extent they had become unworkable.

Under the merger, which is expected to be finalised in late 2024, neither his nor the CFO’s role would be automatically guaranteed in the new structure, he said.
