ACRA Board 2021-2022
Recently ACRA held its AGM via zoom.
We are certainly headed in the right direction as we had several new people put their hand up to be nominated for the ACRA board. As much as we would like to keep everyone, we do have to fall in line with our Articles of Association which states:
18.3 The size of the Board shall be as decided by the Board prior to the AGM and be based on the number of potential applicants for the positions, what may be deemed a reasonable ‘working board size’ and potential experiences needed for the positions. Ideally the board may be between 8 to 12 members, following the no-more-than-40% interest group rule below.
The proportion of Board Members from the three interest groups: suppliers of concrete repair materials, concrete repair contractors and other organisations (considered as one group) shall not exceed 40% from any one interest group providing, of course, that there are insufficient candidates available from each group to permit this.
So to keep in line with the above, a few did not make it but the ballots were close, and we strongly suggest those that didn’t make the board try again when Nominations come around.
It’s great to see most states being represented, and the new board for 2021-2022 is made up of:
Kieran Smith – Freyssinet (President)
Grahame Vile – BAAM Consultants (Immediate Past President)
Peter Johnsson – ACOR
Johnny Au – GHD (WA)
Mike Rutherford – Conspectus (QLD)
Henk van den Heuvel – Andersal
Tom Wenzel – SRG Global (VIC)
Caroline McConnachi – MAX Build
Harvey Welman – Ardex Australia
Grant Dowling – SIKA Australia
Hamid Khan – Fosroc

We are lucky that most of those that didn’t make it have opted to form the NSW Sub Branch Committee, which is now made up of:
Dominic Lambert – Buildcorp
John Riad – Landlay
Kourosh Keshvarian – BCRC
Daniel Caruana – Danrae Group
Chris Stefanovski – Hitech Remedial
Ramiro Garcez – Preservation Technologies, and this team will be headed up by Caroline McConnachi and Grahame Vile.
