Peter McMullin elected President of VECCI

We would like to congratulate Peter McMullin, a Consultant of our firm, on his election as the new President of the Victorian Employers' Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VECCI).

Peter is a Director of the McMullin Group of Companies, a former Mayor of the City of Greater Geelong and a former Deputy Lord Mayor of the City of Melbourne. He has been Deputy President of VECCI since 2003. His diverse and high profile career includes 25 years' experience in running a legal practice and he has also been engaged in various prominent community and organisational leadership roles, has high level expertise in commercial and financial management, and is an experienced consultant and mediator across the public and private sectors.

Peter brings to our firm - and our clients - his expertise in strategy, planning and business development, his networks in political, business and community circles, and his commitment to connecting our clients with the right people. We have no doubt he will continue to be a valued asset to both our firm and VECCI, and will achieve great things in his new role as President.

Among his many achievements, Peter has also been elected to the Board of the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ACCI) and will chair its Employment, Education and Training Committee. He is also currently the President of the Geelong Art Gallery and a Board Member of the Geelong Performing Arts Centre Trust.  In 2003, Peter was awarded the Centenary Medal.

Congratulations again Peter. We look forward to seeing what you bring to your new role.
