Richard Hill, who is co-CEO of Hazelwood & Hill has taken up the reigns of president of the TMA after nine years on the committee, six of those as vice president.
Caddy will remain on the committee and welcomes Peter Alexander of Pueker & Alexander and Garrie James from Outdoor Timber Products to their roles as vice presidents.
As a registered industrial body, which is where the greatest value of the TMA lies, it represents members at Fairwork Australia and this leads to representation at Federal and State Government levels.
The TMA is focused on working with government, unions, business and customers to grow the business opportunities for the merchant sector.
The Associastion believes a more apt name for the TMA could be “The industrial registered body representing our members and association of renewable sustainable resources in Victoria”, but it is a little long however, that is what the association stands works towards.
