CCRDC has interim CEO appointed

An interim Chief Executive Officer has been appointed to the Central Coast Regional Development Corporation.

The decision to put an interim CEO in place follows a recommendation from CCRDC Chairman Graeme Inchley.

Chief Financial and Operating Officer of the Department of Planning and Environment Simon Officer will act as Chief Executive from January 1, 2016.

An advisory committee, chaired by former Honeysuckle Development Corporation General Manager Angus Dawson, was formed last month to consider the operation of development corporations in NSW.

The interim CEO will be in place until the advisory committee completes its work.

The NSW Government has stated that they want to make sure the best management model is in place to help drive new business and jobs on the Central Coast and that the decision will not impact the day to day operations of the corporation.
