A significant leadership change is coming for one of Melbourne’s fastest-growing councils.

Carol Jeffs, the CEO of Cardinia Shire Council, has announced her resignation after nearly seven years at the helm.

Ms. Jeffs will step down from her position on June 4th to take up a new role as CEO of Uniting Vic Tas, one of the largest community service organizations in Victoria and Tasmania.

Cardinia Shire Mayor Jack Kowarzik praised Ms Jeff’s’ leadership, describing her legacy as leaving ‘extremely big shoes to fill.’
