For the first time, a woman will head up Victoria Legal Aid, as outgoing managing director Bevan Warner departs after a decade in the role.
Louise Glanville, who boasts almost two decades’ worth of experience in senior leadership roles for the Victorian and Commonwealth governments, will take the reigns of the state’s public sector legal organisation.
She is also a member of the Australian Law Reform Commission’s Family Law System Advisory Committee and chairs the Victorian Assisted Reproductive Treatment Authority Board.
“Louise Glanville is an outstanding public sector leader, with a wealth of executive leadership experience in both Victorian and Commonwealth government roles, and I congratulate her on her appointment,” Victorian Attorney-General Martin Pakula said.
“I would like to thank Bevan Warner for his decade of leadership at Victoria Legal Aid, and his major contribution to delivering access to justice for Victorians.”
Ms Glanville will commence in her role in mid-October, with Mr Warner stepping down in August.
Jerome Doraisamy is the managing editor of Lawyers Weekly and HR Leader. He is also the author of The Wellness Doctrines book series, an admitted solicitor in New South Wales, and a board director of the Minds Count Foundation.
