FSANZ appoints new CEO
The Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) has appointed its new permanent CEO, veterinarian Dr Sandra Cuthbert, who has held the interim CEO position since August of 2021.
Dr Cuthbert will be taking over the role following the departure of adjunct Professor Mark Booth, who held the position from 2017.
“Dr Cuthbert will play a key role in advancing FSANZ and government priorities in coming months, delivering robust food standards to ensure the ongoing safety and quality of the food supply in Australia and New Zealand,” said Senator Richard Colbeck, whose senatorial remit includes food.
Dr Cuthbert previously worked as an FSANZ general manager and has experience in the private and public sectors, across biosecurity, agriculture and food standards.
Senator Colbeck also expressed his thanks to Prof Booth for his dedication to the role during his tenure.
