John Galvin and Fiona Hick have been appointed as new members to the Infrastructure WA (IWA) board for the period of August 6, 2024, to December 31, 2026.
IWA provides advice and assistance to the WA state government on medium to long-term infrastructure matters in the form of strategic policy direction and oversight of major infrastructure proposals.
Galvin possesses over 35 years of experience in consulting, manufacturing and construction environments, and currently holds positions of Chief Bidding Engineering and Concessions officer at Clough, Alliance Leadership Team Member at Integrate Alliance, and Alternate Director at the Australian Constructors Association.
Hick has a range of diverse board and executive experience and has spent over 25 years in the oil, gas and mining industries. She is currently a Non-Executive Director of Evolution Mining, a member of the University of Western Australia’s Strategic Resources Committee, an associate fellow of the Australian Institute of Management, and a fellow of the Institute of Engineers.
In addition to the new appointments Nicole Lockwood has been reappointed as chairperson, Jay Weatherill as deputy chairperson, and Rebecca Tomkinson as a board member.
Outgoing board members Terry Agnew and Kerryl Bradshaw were both appointed to the IWA’s inaugural board in 2019.
IWA Chairperson Nicole Lockwood has thanked Agnew and Bradshaw for their services to the organisation.
“On behalf of the IWA Board and team, I would like to extend our gratitude to Terry and Kerryl for the past five years. Their roles through the agency’s formative years, the delivery of the inaugural State Infrastructure Strategy and as IWA expanded into all its legislative functions have been invaluable,” Lockwood says.
“It is with great pleasure that we welcome John Galvin and Fiona Hick to the Board. I also offer my congratulations to Jay and Rebecca on their well-deserved re-appointments.
“I am appreciative of the Premier’s confidence in re-appointing me as Chairperson. I look forward to continuing to drive progress at IWA, particularly as our focus shifts to the delivery of the next State Infrastructure Strategy.”
IWA is overseen by an independent board comprising of members with diverse expertise from public and private sectors.
