NEWLY formed aviation lobby group Airlines for Australia and New Zealand (A4ANZ) has today announced the appointment of the Pharmaceutical Society of Australia's (PSA's) Dr Alison Roberts (pictured) as its inaugural ceo.
Roberts has been executive director of policy, advocacy and innovation at the PSA and her eminent career includes her 2016 Innovative Pharmacist of the Year award presented at a UTS Sydney Graduate School of Health gala event (PD 29 Sep 16).
A4ANZ chair Professor Graeme Samuel welcomed Roberts, saying "Alison has a strong track record of championing the interests of her stakeholders in a complex, highly regulated industry, for an important sector of the economy".
"A PhD in change management and current role leading a national policy and advocacy team for a peak body, provide a solid foundation in analytical thinking, the identification of trends, challenges and opportunities at a systemic level and effective implementation," Samuel said.
Roberts commenced her new role with A4ANZ earlier this week.
