CEO of NSW Farmers, Matt Brand, announced last week he is resigning from his role and will leave the Association later in the year. Mr Brand, who joined NSW Farmers in 2011, said after seven and a half great years as CEO, it was now time to explore new opportunities. The NSW Farmers’ Board has asked Mr Brand to remain in his position until the end of August to help with the recruitment process for the next CEO. In 2015, amendments were made to the constitution to change the term of office bearers.
