Executive Appointments

In reply to Mr TELFER (Flinders) (25 June 2025). (Estimates Committee A)

The Hon. N.D. CHAMPION (Taylor—Minister for Housing and Urban Development, Minister for Housing Infrastructure, Minister for Planning): I have been advised that for the SA Water:

Section 17 of the South Australian Water Corporation Act 1994 allows the corporation to appoint the employees it thinks necessary or desirable and on terms and conditions fixed by the corporation. SA Water uses its own industrial framework for employing staff and no positions at SA Water fall within the SA executive service.

SA Water's executive structure comprises its chief executive, its chief financial officer, chief information officer and six general managers. One executive was appointed during this time:

General Manager People and Safety.

One general manager has temporarily been reassigned to a 12-month role as General Manager Growth to provide dedicated focus on growth related initiatives related to the Housing Roadmap. This position will end June 2026 and the substantive position has been temporarily backfilled by an internal candidate.

As a public corporation, SA Water operates in a commercial environment and competes with other private and public sector entities within South Australia and interstate. As such, SA Water considers the details of executive remuneration by specific role function to be commercially sensitive.

Salary bands of staff are included in SA Water's annual report.
