\"\"<\/a>
South Burnett Mayor Keith Campbell and CEO Gary Wall … Mr Wall has announced his plan to retire from the Council in July after a 47-year-career in local government<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

December 7, 2017<\/strong><\/p>\n

The South Burnett Regional Council’s most senior officer will step down from his post next year.<\/p>\n

Chief Executive Officer Gary Wall has told Council staff he will finish work on July 5, 2018.<\/p>\n

Mr Wall has worked in local government for 47 years, the majority of which was served with the former Kingaroy Shire Council.<\/p>\n

He transferred to the South Burnett Regional Council in 2008, where he was appointed to the position of Finance and IT General Manager.<\/p>\n

Mr Wall held this position until November 2014, when he was appointed as the Council’s Acting CEO following the departure of former CEO Ken McLoughlin.<\/p>\n

Mr Wall was confirmed in the position in February 2015, beating a field of 45 other applicants for the post.<\/p>\n

It is believed Mr Wall has timed his departure to give the Council adequate time to source a replacement.<\/p>\n

The July exit date will also allow him to assist in the preparation of the 2017-2018 Budget, and help orient and induct his replacement.<\/p>\n

The Council is expected to enlist the help of the Local Government Association Of Queensland to locate a suitable applicant to fill the position, which may include local candidates.<\/p>\n

Mr Wall announced his plans in emails sent to Councillors and Council staff.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
