About Us

What We Do

At GuildSuper we work for women.  

Why? because we understand the challenges all Australian women face, when it comes to saving for retirement. 

Our Members Come First

We work to help women:

• understand, grow and protect their super,
• get rewarded for saving,

Our super fund is leading the way by putting our members first. We are inclusive and for everyone.

We recognise that 85% of our members are women. We appreciate and respect that many of our members are casual workers and/or work part-time. Therefore, unlike other super funds, this means that working for women is our core focus.
