(Posted on 16/08/18)
Australia’s Board of national grain farmer representative organisation, Grain Growers Limited (GrainGrowers), has announced an updated management structure for the organisation.
GrainGrowers will transition to a single CEO effective today, after a successful period operating with a dual CEO structure.
David McKeon has been appointed to lead the organisation into the future as CEO, while Dr Michael Southan will leave the organisation at the end of December 2018, after completing a number of projects for the Board.
Eastburn said that the organisation was in a strong position and well placed to continue delivering for grain farmers across Australia with David as CEO as a recognised industry leader. He also thanked Dr Southan for the important role he has played to position the organisation in recent years.
