Relationship Manager

Established in 1988, Rest is one of Australia’s largest profit-to-member superannuation funds.

We support more than two million members, with around $100 billion of funds under management and are recognised as a responsible investment leader*. We believe when members understand and engage with their super, they’re more likely to get a better retirement outcome.

Everything we do at Rest is underpinned by our values and behaviours, we want to Be Daring, Keep it Simple, Take Action and Have Grit. To put it simply we want our people to thrive and love the work they do.

As a Relationship Manager, you will own a portfolio of some of Rest’s largest and most strategic employers. Your role is central to our growth and retention strategy. You will shape how employers experience our fund, influence how their employees engage with their superannuation, and strengthen Rest’s position in key industries across Australia.

This is a role for someone who thrives at the intersection of strategy, partnerships, leadership, and client impact. You’ll be regarded as the trusted adviser to employer executives, a collaborator across Rest, and the person who ensures every touchpoint reflects our commitment to excellence.

You will lead a portfolio with a clear mandate: retain, grow and deepen relationships with senior employer stakeholders.

Your responsibilities include:

• Own and lead the retention and growth strategy for a portfolio of major employers, ensuring Rest remains their fund of choice.
• Build strong, long-term partnerships with senior and executive decision-makers, and influence their strategic objectives.
• Act as Rest’s representative within industry groups and association forums, strengthening our visibility and market presence.
• Drive proactive engagement through regular governance & employer management committee meetings, performance reviews and solution-focused conversations.
• Collaborate across Rest's investments, product, digital, operations, insurance, legal and advice teams to deliver consistent, market-leading service.
• Identify growth opportunities within existing and new employer groups, including sub-brands and associated entities.
• Develop and deliver annual account plans aligned with Rest’s strategy, supported by structured rhythms, insights and reporting.
• Resolve issues with urgency and care, ensuring employers and their people experience seamless support.
