Among those with a seat at the Commission’s boardroom table is The Apprentice and Traineeship Company CEO Stan Liaros, who was recently appointed for a three-year term.
Mr Liaros is actively involved in business and community activities in the South West of Western Australia where he strongly advocates for employment and training in the region.
He is also chair of Aqwest (Bunbury Water Corporation), and a board member of the WA Construction Training Fund.
He is a former chair of the Apprentice Employment Network WA and the South West Academy of Sport, and was senior vice-president of the South West Football League for five years.
Mr Liaros has previously been a member of the SWDC Board.
“I am genuinely excited about returning to the Board of the SWDC at a time when the South West region is in a growth phase with opportunities that abound alongside some challenging issues that will need the Commission to play a coordinating and facilitating role in the region,” Mr Liaros said.
“I believe I can provide a broad and experienced perspective to the Board’s deliberations in a wide range of areas and in conjunction with the SWDC staff contribute to the growth and development of the South West.”
SWDC is a statutory authority of the State Government responsible for the sustainable economic and social advancement of the South West region of Western Australia.
