MyState Chairman, Mr Miles Hampton, said: “On behalf of the board, our shareholders, our employees and our customers, I would like to thank Ian Mansbridge for his long service to the group. He was appointed to the board of Tasmanian Perpetual Trustees Limited in 2004 and became a director of MyState Limited at the time of the merger in 2009.

His extensive recent experience in the financial services industry will enable him to make a significant contribution to the company as we seek to embrace new ways of doing business and expand our operations,” Miles Hampton said.
Most recently, Mr Bissaker was CEO of Virgin Money Australia and a group executive of Bank of Queensland, after leading the team that acquired Virgin Money for the bank. Prior to this, he spent 10 years with Commonwealth Bank, including six years as CEO of Colonial First State which had funds under management of $70 billion. During this time he was also a director and deputy chairman of the Financial Services Council. Earlier, he held senior management positions with BT Funds Management and KPMG. He is currently an adjunct professor of management education at University of Sydney Business School.
