TAFE NSW’s Managing Director, Stephen Brady, is leaving the role after leading the organisation for the past three years.
Mr Brady was appointed to the role in December 2021, and during his tenure has overseen important reforms in vocational education and training sector.
Mr Brady was instrumental in leading TAFE NSW through the NSW VET Review, a Minns Labor Government commitment to restoring TAFE to the heart of the VET sector.
With TAFE NSW now entering its new phase of implementing the VET Review, including finalising a new Operating Model and TAFE NSW Charter, it is the right time for new leadership to guide TAFE NSW through this next stage.
The process to appoint a new Managing Director will commence in due course. In the interim, Chloe Read, Deputy Secretary, Education and Skills Reform, NSW Department of Education will act in the role.
Ms Read has served in several senior public service roles. She has extensive experience in the education sector, with over ten years at NSW Department of Education.
