Expressions of Interest

Commonwealth Government Business Enterprises

Directors

The Department of Finance has appointed NGS Global to seek expressions of interest from experienced Executives and Board Directors for potential Director roles in Government Business Enterprises (GBEs) and other commercial Commonwealth entities that may become vacant throughout 2023.

The GBEs include:

• ASC Pty Ltd

• Australian Naval Infrastructure Pty ltd

• Australian Rail Track Corporation Limited

• Australia Post

• Defence Housing Australia

• National Intermodal Corporation Limited

• NBN Co Limited

• Snowy Hydro Limited

• WSA Co Limited

The Australian Government established these commercially focussed GBEs to contribute to the Australian economy, meet Government policy objectives, enhance productivity and create jobs.

The Department of Finance and partnering shareholder departments advise the Australian Government on the appointment of Directors to GBEs. Directors provide stewardship, strategic leadership, governance, and oversight of GBEs, while also acting as a bridge between Commonwealth policy-making and operational implementation by GBEs. The guide on the Role of Directors in Commonwealth Government Business Enterprises, available from the Department of Finance website, provides an overview of the GBE governance framework for Directors (including where these differ to private sector organisations).

NGS Global is seeking strong, experienced and diverse candidates that are able to contribute to the Government’s complex and significant policy agenda to inform Government of potential candidates. If you have at least two years’ industry experience and executive capabilities relevant to these organisations, please send your expression of interest, comprising of a one page pitch and a CV of no more than two pages, to GBE.director@ngs-global.com or contact Mark Lelliott or Grant Nichol on +61 3 8626 0600 or 1300 138 863.
