In his current role as Mercer Pacific’s Chief Financial Officer, Mr Haas has overseen Mercer’s financial strategy and operations across the region.
Mr Haas succeeds Claire Ross who will leave Mercer following almost 17 years in senior leadership roles across three continents. Ms Ross most recently served as Mercer Pacific’s Chief Operating Officer and then Chief Executive Officer at Mercer Super.

“Mercer Super has undergone tremendous growth over recent years with the fund now serving more than one million members with over $85 billion under management. Underpinning that growth is our ongoing investment program in personnel, technology, systems and processes which is strengthening the fund for the benefit of members”, said Mr Bryant.
