AusNet Chief Executive Officer David Smales said the new vision, which is to be ‘trusted to bring the energy today and build a cleaner tomorrow,’ has been established to guide the actions and decisions of the company through the energy transition.
“I have established a new leadership team to deliver on this vision and drive an increased focus on delivering improved outcomes for our customers, communities, key stakeholders and our business,” he said.
AusNet’s new Leadership Team has been structured to provide increased executive focus on four lines of business: electricity transmission, electricity distribution, gas & metering, and contestable energy infrastructure. This means it will shift from a functional operating model to a line of business operating model.
“Each business leader has been tasked with achieving exceptional performance outcomes for their respective community, customer and stakeholder groups, whilst enabling an efficient energy transition,” Smales said.
- Liz Ryan will lead the Victorian Electricity Transmission business
- Andrew Linnie will lead the Victorian Electricity Distribution business
- Fran Duiker will lead the Victorian Gas and Metering business (on an acting basis)
- Jon D’Sylva will lead AusNet’s contestable Development and Future Networks business.
The four lines of business will be supported by five enabling functions:
- Mark Ellul, Chief Financial Officer
- Bridget Cairns, Executive General Manager People and Safety
- Amanda Robertson, Executive General Manager Compliance, Risk and Corporate Affairs
- Chris Galland, Chief Technology Officer (Acting)
- Sarah Hannah, Executive General Manager Group Operations (Acting).
