Superannuation help
Hi, I started a part time job as a receptionist in a physio/chiro clininc and need to find a super fund as the company doesn't have one. I have looked online, but just confussed with all the different ones. Really need to speak to somebody any suggestions please?

I would pick any super fund that is an "industry super fund". I use SunSuper.

Re: Superannuation help
There are a couple of books in the ".... for dummies" series on Super funds ('Superannuation for Dummies' and 'Choosing a superannuation fund for dummies' by Trish Power) both should be available at your local library.
Your employer has to hold on to your super until you have picked a fund, I think you get 3 months grace to supply the details.

Re: Superannuation help
as it's just a pt job I'd join any super for now. It's all transferable when you have had time to decide in years to come.

Re: Superannuation help
I think this one needs a super with minimal fixed fees, but accept a higher % fee in exchange.
