Ms Sullivan has a wealth of experience in taxation, including most recently as PwC’s national leader for charities and not-for-profits practice, and for tax litigation and alternative dispute resolution. 

Mr Stephens has extensive tax experience, including most recently as the managing partner of BDO in Hobart. He is a registered tax agent and has been working in a business services and taxation role for over 40 years.

“These appointments will ensure a high level of skill and experience is available to the board,” Mr Sukkar said.
