Maritime safety veteran Angus Mitchell has been appointed as the next CEO of the ATSB (ATSB)
The Australian Transport Safety Bureau has announced the appointment of 30-year maritime transport safety veteran Angus Mitchell as its new chief commissioner and chief executive.
The news comes after the recently announced retirement of current CEO Greg Hood, who stepped down from the role on 30 June at the end of his five-year term.
Mitchell joins the ATSB from Maritime Safety Queensland, where he spent the last 2.5 years as general manager, and was responsible for overseeing the safe and efficient movement of vessels into and out of Queensland’s 21 ports.
