Golden Plains Shire Council CEO Eric Braslis has resigned after over six years of service.
Mayor Brett Cunningham has paid tribute to Mr Braslis’s contribution to the organisation during his tenure, leading the council through a transformative period, navigating challenges including the COVID-19 pandemic, and achieving significant milestones such as the construction of the Civic Centre and the implementation of the Growing Places Strategy.
He said Mr Braslis’s leadership also resulted in record levels of funding for the Shire and improvements in organisational culture and staff satisfaction.
The search for a new CEO will commence immediately.
Mr Braslis was previously CEO of Gannawarra Shire Council for 2 and a half years, and has held senior roles at Hobsons Bay, Ballarat, Stonnington and Greater Shepparton.
