Gregory Rimmer-Hollyman
Non-Executive Director
I am a Non-Executive Director, Treasurer, Chairman, Audit & Risk Committee Member with over twenty years board level experience with particular expertise in the public sector, banking and consultancy industries. At board level what I do is transform and grow organisations. I do that by leveraging my finance, audit, risk and compliance, governance better practices and assurance expertise. Board level highlights include my position as Non-Executive Director and Treasurer at Onemda, Independent Audit & Risk Committee Member at Banyule City Council and Nillumbik Shire Council, and multiple positions as Board Member, Chairman and Committee Member at the Institute of Internal Auditors in Australia, South Africa and the Global institute based in the USA. In an executive capacity I am currently the Managing Director of a consultancy company Grenic Consulting and I also serve as an Interim Chief Audit and Risk Officer at the Victorian Department of Health. Previously I was the Chief Internal Auditor at the National Disability Insurance Agency. Here I created the internal audit function, decreased the number of ANAO recommendations from 13 to 3 within 12 months and developed a risk-focused plan. Earlier I was Chief Internal Auditor at the Australian Taxation Office, where I developed the strategic direction for the internal audit function and chaired the Commonwealth forum of chief audit executives. Finally, I have a Honours Bachelor of Accounting Science, am a Certified Practising Accountant, Chartered Public Finance Accountant, Chartered Internal Auditor and a Graduate of the AICD’s Company Directors Course.
