Printing Industries is offering $250,000 to $300,000pa plus incentives for its new CEO, with the ad on recruiting site seek.com promoting the role as a ‘fantastic opportunity’.

The new CEO will succeed Jason Allen, who resigned at Christmas after just six months in the job, then quit his post last week ahead of the SGM, although he was scheduled to work until April 1.

Allen’s tenure can safely be said to have been the most tumultuous in the 170-year history of the PIAA as he pushed through a series of reforms, causing ructions among members, and culminating in the resignations of four of the nine people on the Board, including two presidents.

The PIAA is advertising for a person with ‘strong attributes associated with communication and networking skills, change management, strategic leadership, development of a brand and a demonstrated record of achievement related to the overall attainment of excellence in an executive position within a complex and highly diverse organisation’.

The key responsibilities listed include developing a cohesive and motivated national organisation, reviewing the organisational structure, streamlining of business processes and workflow planning to minimise operational overhead, developing, identifying and implementing new revenue streams and programmes, the development and implementation of strategic day-to-day planning, and to support the president and board with key financial information and operational analytics.

Candidates can apply to recruitment agency Investigo.
