City of Nedlands CEO Bill Parker has been announced as the new chief for the City of Wanneroo this week.

The 20 year local government veteran has worked across metropolitan and regional Western Australia, and will take up the Wanneroo role in early December.

Current CEO Daniel Simms is vacating the role after 21 years with the city to take up the top job at the City of Cockburn.

Meanwhile at the City of Bunbury, where Malcolm Osborne is retiring after six years as CEO, the council has appointed Alan Ferris to the position, commencing in mid-November.

Mr Ferris is moving from a director position at the Town of Claremont. He is a former elected member and mayor at East Fremantle, and has over three decades of state and local government experience.
