THE Committee for Geelong (CfG) is on the hunt for a new chief executive officer, with incumbent Jennifer Cromarty planning to step down from the influential not-for profit group in December.<\/p>\n
The CfG board announced Ms Cromarty’s resignation earlier today (Friday, September 2)<\/p>\n
CfG chair Clive Pugh said Ms Cromarty would be leaving the organisation after almost four years as chief executive officer, during which time Geelong and the wider region had seen difficulties, yet also growth, development, and opportunities.<\/p>\n
\u201cJennifer joined the Committee for Geelong in March 2019 and within a year we all faced the unknowns of the COVID-19 pandemic, which brought a whole new set of challenges to our organisation and the region.<\/p>\n
\u201cJennifer has been able to navigate the Committee for Geelong through these issues and continue advocating for the region, including delivering a new strategy, releasing multiple research reports… and strengthening relationships with key stakeholders.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt has been an extraordinary period and we are well-placed for future progress, so we thank Jennifer for her achievements, her effort and her commitment, and we wish her every success.<\/p>\n
