Cecilia Robinson will join Pie Funds, issuer of the JUNO KiwiSaver Scheme, as a director.

“I’m delighted to work with the Pie team,” she said. “I have a huge amount of respect for what its founder, Mike Taylor, has achieved since inception, growing funds under management from $3 million to over $1 billion and launching its low fee, education-focused KiwiSaver scheme under its JUNO brand.

“Pie has generated over $359 million of wealth for its investors in the last decade, however as a director, my focus will not only be on the performance of the business but on the people and marketing strategy that will underpin our next significant growth chapter ahead.”

Pie’s founder and chief executive Mike Taylor said Robinson's appointment to the board came at an exciting time for both Pie and JUNO.

“October has been our biggest month for new JUNO membership since our launch in August 2018 and we added well over 1,000 members, so we’re in a great position, enjoying strong performance, and growing market share all the time,” he says. “However there’s always more to do. Cecilia’s experience in marketing, and her people and culture focus will help prepare us for new challenges. We like her entrepreneurship mindset and are impressed with her business acumen.”

She joins Taylor, Steve Nichols, Ana-Marie Lockyer, Roger Kerr, Lance Jones and Dr Roy Knill on the board. Her appointment takes effect November 1.
