The Onslow Chamber of Commerce & Industry is delighted to announce Bree Maher as our new CEO. Bree steps into this role with a wealth of experience, a passion for Onslow, and a deep commitment to driving positive outcomes for our community.
In her own words, Bree shares her vision and excitement about joining the Chamber:
*"As I step into the role of CEO this week, I am filled with excitement, gratitude, and a profound sense of responsibility.
First and foremost, I want to acknowledge the outstanding achievements of the Chamber under the leadership of Chantelle King and the support of the wider team. Chantelle’s dedication and vision have set a remarkable foundation, and I am deeply honoured to continue building on her legacy.
Onslow is more than just a place to me—it is a community I deeply love and believe in. My passion for this town and its people fuels my commitment to seeing us all thrive. I firmly believe that when we collaborate, we can overcome challenges, seize opportunities, and ensure a prosperous future for all. As a leader, I bring a collaborative and inclusive approach, working to unite voices and efforts across our membership and beyond.
I am looking forward to hitting the ground running and working with you all in the new year on the development of the Chamber’s next strategic plan, ensuring it reflects the priorities and aspirations of our community. I am also pleased to advise that I am working closely with other Pilbara Chambers on strengthening our partnerships to present a unified front to address shared challenges. From housing shortages and childcare access to recruitment, retention, and the rising cost of living, these are issues that impact us all, and I am committed to ensuring our advocacy resonates with all levels of government. Equally, I am dedicated to supporting our local businesses in navigating the ever-changing economic environment. By equipping our members with the tools and knowledge they need to remain responsive and resilient, we can collectively bolster Onslow’s economic future.
As we head into the festive season, I know many of you are wrapping up for the year, so I’ll be reaching out in the new year to connect with each of you individually. I’d love the chance to hear your ideas, challenges, and aspirations for the Chamber, and I’ll be in touch to lock in a time to meet. In the meantime, if you’d like to get in touch, you can reach me ceo@onslowcci.com.au or on 0499 028 766 or feel free to drop in and see me at The Hub, with our offices open until 24 December 2024.
Thank you all for welcoming me into this role. I wish you and your families a very Merry Christmas and a joyful start to the new year!"*
Bree’s collaborative leadership style and strong vision for Onslow’s future align perfectly with the Chamber’s mission to support and advocate for our local businesses and community.
Please join us in giving Bree a warm welcome as she begins this exciting chapter with the Onslow Chamber of Commerce & Industry!
