Master Electricians Australia (MEA) has appointed experienced construction industry advocate and policy expert Kate Raymond as its Chief Executive Officer, following a nation-wide recruitment exercise.
Ms Raymond has extensive experience primarily within the building, construction and property industries, most recently at Master Builders Queensland, where she has served as General Manager, Advocacy & Policy since July 2022.
MEA President Peter Matthews said “Before her current role she worked with the Australian Constructors Association and the Queensland Building and Construction Commission.
“Across those various roles she has been closely involved in strategic policy development, government and industry collaboration, and advocacy on behalf of industry members. These skills will be invaluable to Master Electricians Australia.
“We’re also sure that as our first female CEO, she will bring a new perspective to managing the team and culture within the organisation, which will have positive flow-on effects for members and the wider industry.”
ESA would like to congratulate Kate Raymond and look forward to working closely with her and MEA.
Ms Raymond will commence in the role on April 29.
