Looking for a super fund that’s large enough to perform, but small enough to care? It’s time to get in FIRST

First Super is the super fund for regional Australia. Our team of Regional Coordinators across the country assist our members and employers with their superannuation needs*. This can be completing forms to information about how to make the most of your super.

A history of strong returns and putting members FIRST

First Super’s average annual return for our Balanced investment option is 8.31% over the last 33 years. Our members can choose their own investment options, depending on their financial goals and risk appetite.

As an Industry SuperFund, we put our members FIRST and all returns are provided to members, not shareholders. We are constantly looking for ways we can improve our offering to members and even reduced our fees further at the end of 2021.

We invest to ensure the security of our members’ retirement savings, in businesses and products that improve the lives of our members now and into the future.

Someone in town

At FIRST, we pride ourselves on the service we provide to our members. With an office located in Mount Gambier, you’re able to come in and talk to our Regional Coordinator about your super questions*.

Not on the Limestone Coast? Find your local Coordinator here.

If that doesn’t suit you, our Coordinators can also come to you – through workplace visits or meetings at your home.

If you’d prefer to chat to someone over the phone, we’ve got a dedicated Member Services Team available on 1300 660 988*. You can also use the chat function down the bottom of this page if you want to talk to someone online.

Financial advice

First Super offers financial advice to all members. From general advice about your super account from our Regional Coordinators and Member Services Team, to comprehensive personal advice from our Financial Planners that looks at super as one part of your wealth management plan*.

We also offer members Super Health Checks. This is a 30-minute service available to all members at no additional cost, that provides you with an overview of how your super is tracking and what you could consider changing in the lead up to retirement.

If you aren’t a member yet, you can ask your Coordinator or our Member Services Team for a comparison instead and find out how your current super fund compares to us.

Products for any stage of life

We don’t just offer products to grow your superannuation savings while you’re working.

We also offer insurance products that can help protect your family if anything should happen to you.

And if you are approaching retirement, we offer Transition to Retirement, which can mean you reduce your work hours while maintaining your income.

For members in retirement, we offer an Allocated Pension. This means you could still receive the Age Pension, while benefitting from a regular stream of income from us.

An Industry SuperFund

First Super is an Industry SuperFund. That means we are run only to benefit our members, not shareholders, so all profits are returned to you.

While our traditional membership base is in the timber, paper and pulp, and cabinetry industries, we have now expanded and work with members from all industries.
