Regional Development Australia Mid North Coast (RDAMNC) is seeking committed leaders to apply to join their committee of management.
RDAMNC covers the area from Taree in the south to Woolgoolga in the north.
The body is seeking regional leaders with vision, drive and business, government or community experience who can help to facilitate economic development opportunities and investment for our regional communities and create jobs and growth.
RDAMNC Innovation and Media manager, Russell Pell, told the Argus the positions are voluntary, and that the committee meets every two months.
"They are looking to revitalise the organisation with a good spread of people across the area," Russell said.
Applications are being sought from business and community leaders who have a proven track record of achieving meaningful outcomes in a complex environment.
The new chair of RDAMNC is Kieren Dell, who has extensive business interests across the coast, including the new Kempsey cinema.
"Regional Australia is poised for a period of growth and renewal following natural disasters and the pandemic ... making this a wonderful time to be involved in an organisation like Regional Development Australia as it seeks to help shape the future prosperity of regional Australia," Kieren said.
Appointed to the position of chair earlier this year, Kieren has extensive experience in business, including 18 years founding and running his own business, Majestic Cinemas, which was founded in Nambucca Heads in 2002, and operates in Port Macquarie along with Kempsey, plus five other sites.
Kieren also has more than 35 years' experience in financial services at senior and CEO level, including running two industry bodies.
"I look forward to a range of leaders across business and the community and across the entire breadth of the Mid North Coast putting forth their names to join the management committee and volunteer their expertise and time to assist RDA, and in so doing advance the economic development of the region and, most importantly, enhance the lives of the people of this amazing place we live in," he said
Applications are now open - applicants can apply for a position as an RDAMNC committee member or nominate for the position of deputy chair, with appointments being for an initial 12-month term.
