Transport Certification Australia (TCA) Chief Executive Officer Chris Koniditsiotis will retire from the position it has been announced.
He will stay on in the role until 1 March, 2019 according to a media release issued by the TCA earlier today.
Mr. Koniditsiotis has held the CEO position since 2005, the year TCA was established.
Stephen Golding, TCA Chairperson, praised Mr. Koniditsiotis for his work and leadership.
“On behalf of the Board of TCA and all past directors I congratulate Chris on an outstanding leadership role in bringing TCA to its present state and thank him for his efforts,” he said.
“I wish Chris all the best for the future,” Mr. Golding said.
According to Mr. Koniditsiotis, the opportunity to lead a national government organisation and help shape the digital transformation of surface transport had been a privilege.
“It is now my time to pass on the baton in the way the baton was originally passed to me,” he said.
“I am honoured to have worked with decent, competent and content-rich people who have demonstrated strong values-based behaviours.
“I’ve also had the privilege to meet and work with some great people across government, industry and technology sector, whose passion and love for their work has been contagious.”
Mr. Koniditsiotis said he was proud of how TCA had delivered improved productivity and safety outcomes by harnessing the digital economy with a contemporary open market approach with the highest levels of data privacy.
“As I move towards the next chapter of my life, I reflect with pride on what has been achieved, and collectively, how a diverse range of individuals have contributed to these achievements,” he said.
“I wish to thank the TCA’s Chairperson, Stephen Golding, and the TCA Board for all their support over the years,” Mr. Koniditsiotis said.
“I will be leaving TCA with strong foundations, and in a position of strength to move forward into the future.”
