Depending on how you look at it, changing jobs can either be an exciting time or a stressful one. With so much happening, you can be forgiven for focusing on the new role rather than your financial arrangements. However, a new job is also a good opportunity to review your superannuation, insurance, savings and overall financial position. Here are some things to consider when making a career move.

1. Review your superannuation

Changing jobs doesn't necessarily mean you need to change super funds. You can generally keep your existing super account or choose a different fund.

Before making a decision, compare the features of your existing fund with an alternative. Consider fees, investment options, long-term performance, insurance cover and any other features or benefits that may be important to you.
