The Chair of Cape York Natural Resource Management, Emma Jackson, takes pleasure in announcing that the Board of Directors has appointed a new Chief Executive Officer.

Mr John Gavin will commence working in the role of CEO with Cape York NRM on Monday 13 August 2018.

Emma Jackson said, ‘John has many years’ experience in natural resource management and has successfully operated his own business specializing in natural resource management services and solutions’.

She went on to say that Mr Gavin literally comes with a world of experience, both with community development experience in Australia and internationally, and environmental management across the rangelands of Australia — plus a broad skill set in corporate and community governance.
