Fellow members, as you all will know by now, we farewelled the wonderful Anna Czermak last month. During Anna’s time, ArchiTeam developed stronger systems, more members, and better services. The board has the great pleasure to announce that we have now appointed a CEO, in order to continue the continued growth and development of the Cooperative.
We will continue to:
- provide affordable, effective, PI insurance
- connect our members to each other (through our member services programs)
- and advocate for architecture and architects
We are absolutely delighted to welcome Phoebe La Gerche Wijsman as our first CEO.
Phoebe is a qualified landscape architect, has studied architecture, and has a keen interest in design. Phoebe comes with direct experience as a National Executive Officer of a not-for-profit organisation. She has strong experience in marketing, media and electronic communication, and program and event management.
We were fortunate to be able to select Phoebe from an impressive group of well-qualified applicants. We think she will help us to support the culture of ArchiTeam: as inclusive, member-based, and forward-thinking. Her experience and gusto will help us to introduce more programs to support members.
Please make her feel welcome, and introduce yourself to her in the coming months. She will be doing her best to support all ArchiTeam members.
Rosemary Ross,
Chair, ArchiTeam Board of Directors
