The South West CEO resides most of the time in Bunbury, however as she is engaged on a shorter term contract, also has personal commitments in Perth that requires her to return most weekends to Perth.
The Goldfields Esperance CEO was recruited for a short term contract of four months and whilst he spent the majority of his time in the region, has a residence and personal commitments in Perth.
