Hume council has appointed Roslyn Wai as interim chief executive following the resignation of chief executive Domenic Isola.
Mr Isola, who was appointed as chief executive in August 2007, had been with the organisation for more than 20 years.
In August last year the council reappointed Mr Isola to the top job for another four years.
Hume mayor Joseph Haweil said Ms Wai has 30 years’ experience working across the media, tertiary education and water sectors in public relations, community engagement, customer service, business management, strategy and governance.
“Roslyn is a highly regarded senior executive, with strong experience in delivering organisational strategy, stakeholder engagement and people management,” he said.
“The council has great confidence in Roslyn to lead the organisation through this interim period, and with the support of the executive management team, will continue to delver stable and consistent management of Hume council until a permanent appointment is made.
“As our communities recover and reconnect from the impacts of COVID-19, council will continue to deliver the critical services, programs and projects our growing community needs and seize opportunities to accelerate economic recovery of businesses, employment and local investment.”
Ms Wai joined Hume council in 2019 as director communications engagement advocacy.
Prior to joining the council, Ms Wai was executive general manager strategy and governance (corporate secretary) with Coliban Water.
