Damien Webb, Appointed to Deputy Chief Investment Officer, Aware Super
October 2021
Damien Webb has been appointed as the Deputy Chief Investment Officer of Aware Super as it prepares to become a $250 billion fund in the coming years.
Damien joined the fund in 2014, in the role Head of Income and Real Assets. Since then, he has led the fund’s investment strategy in infrastructure, property, credit income and agriculture asset classes (a significant allocation and area of focus for the fund).
In addition to continuing to lead Aware’s real assets team, his new role will also see him working closely with the Chief Investment Officer, Damian Graham to expand the investment team (expected to double in size and expand offshore) and implement the fund’s investment strategy, as it paves the way forward to becoming a powerhouse within Australia’s superannuation industry.
GII congratulates Damien on his appointment and we wish continued success to the Aware team as they undergo this tremendous growth transition.
