Grant Boyd has been appointed as CEO of the new organisation that will be created by the merger of the boards of Barwon Child, Youth & Family (BCYF) and Bethany Community Support (Bethany).
BCYF Board Chair David McDonald and Bethany Board Chair Chris Bowly said “they are
delighted that Grant will take on the CEO role during this exciting time of growth and development
of the two organisations”.
Mr Boyd will lead the merger transition process and will become the first CEO of the new organisation to be formed by June 2023.
Mr Boyd has been the CEO of Bethany for the past 13 years overseeing considerable change.
“The process of planning the merger between Bethany and BCYF has been highly collaborative with a focus on increased benefit to clients, staff and the community,” Mr Boyd said.
“BCYF’s CEO Sandy Morrison, who did not take part in the recruitment process, remains committed to BCYF during the transitional period and will be sharing his considerable experience in the transition,” Mr McDonald said.
