South East Water Board welcomes new Directors

South East Water Chair, Lynn Warneke, is delighted to welcome three new Directors, Clare Amies, Philippa Taylor and Chris Newton, to the South East Water Board and extends congratulations to Dr Rohan Henry and Julie Stanley on their reappointment.

Clare, Philippa and Chris bring a wealth of knowledge and experience from the public, not-for-profit and private sectors, with expertise that spans people and culture, health and safety, financial management, sustainability and environmental, social and governance (ESG). Their appointments complement the diverse skills and experience of continuing Directors and position the Board strongly to continue guiding South East Water to meet customer and community needs and effectively address future challenges and opportunities.

These appointments, effective from 1 October 2025, have been made by the Hon. Gayle Tierney following a rigorous government-led process.

While welcoming new appointees to the Board, Lynn Warneke also expressed her gratitude to departing Directors Tim Lyons, Dr. Kim McGrath, and Arron Wood for their commitment and expert contributions over many years to South East Water and the Victorian water sector.
