About us

SuperFriend’s vision is for an Australia where all workplaces are mentally healthy. We are a workplace mental health organisation specialising in financial services. We provide training, solutions and insights, and advocate for positive change through industry and government forums.  Our main stakeholders are our 32 Partners, made up of Australia's leading profit-to-member super funds (including AustralianSuper, Cbus, UniSuper), and group insurers (including TAL and AIA). We work directly with our Partners and in their workplaces, and with their participating employers. Our Partnerships mean we have potential to embed mental health and wellbeing best practices into 750,000 workplaces and impact more than half of Australia’s workforce.
