The Institute has embarked on a program of significant change in the way our staffing and resources are organised. These changes are designed to create a more efficient organisation through greater strategic alignment and a more direct focus on members and other stakeholders. As a result, we are pleased to announce the appointment of three new General Managers:<\/p>\n
Jamie Penrose<\/b> has been appointed to the new position of General Manager Member Engagement<\/b>. Jamie has recently come from a similar role as the Director, Member Services for the Pharmaceutical Society of Australia, was previously the General Manager Marketing at Engineers Australia, and has also held leadership roles with Animal Health Australia and the Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre. Jamie commenced his new position on 26 May 2014. Jamie is based at National Office, Canberra.<\/p>\n
Cameron Frazer<\/b>, previously the Institute\u2019s General Manager of Archicentre, has accepted the new position of General Manager Commercial and Community<\/b>, and commenced his role in early May. Cameron will continue to be based in Melbourne.<\/p>\n
Vanessa Goss <\/b>has been appointed General Manager Shared Services<\/b>.

She has worked for a number of non-profit and commercial organisations spanning rural research and development, advertising, communications and legal services. Vanessa commences her new role today and is based at National Office, Canberra.<\/p>\n
These new appointments have created important changes for the previous senior management team:<\/p>\n
