Paul Colyer, our first Executive Officer, left our association at the end of September to take up a position with Caritas as the  Associate Director - Community Engagement

It is through Paul's guidance and work that ACPPA has developed into a modern and professional organisation. The future-proofing of the ACPPA through the development of the strategic plan 2021-2024 and the implementation of the operational aspect of the plan were significant parts of Paul’s work.

Paul was the first executive officer of ACPPA, taking on the position in 2017. Since this time, he has worked diligently supporting the work of the president and the board through the daily work of the association.

This included preparation and research on several important key projects, including the incorporation of our association, our rebranding, key strategic planning, and the delivery of ACP Connect, the principal well-being portal, in partnership with Brennan Law.  

Paul has used his prior experience as a principal to provide a level of insight into the position that has proved highly valuable to the president, management team, board, and the association.

We congratulate Paul on his appointment and acknowledge him for his exceptional work, which has left our association extremely well-placed for the future.
