NEDC CEO Stepping
Down in Fall
NANAIMO, British Columbia: Today,
the Nanaimo Economic Development Corporation (NEDC) announced that it has
received notice from its CEO, Sasha Angus, that he will be stepping down from
the role later this year.
"It has been a privilege to work
closely with our board, staff, Council and community stakeholders over the past
three years," said Sasha Angus, CEO of the Nanaimo Economic Development
Corporation. "This made it a very difficult decision to make, but ultimately
considerations regarding my family and our health must come first. I still strongly believe that our
region has incredible potential and a bright future ahead of it. Given its
progress in the past few years, I believe that the NEDC will play a significant
role in the progress and prosperity that the region will enjoy in the coming
years."
Angus will continue as Chief
Executive Officer with the corporation until October 1 and will
assist with the transition during the search for a new CEO. After October, he
and his family will be relocating to Victoria to support new opportunities that
have presented themselves for the family.
"The board was very sorry to
receive Sasha's notice, he will be sorely missed," said Andre Sullivan,
Chair of the NEDC. "He has played a leading role in the corporation's
success over the past few years, developing a number of the significant projects
in the community."
The board of the
NEDC will be striking a search committee and will be working with a recruitment
firm to help identify a new CEO. It is anticipated that this process will
conclude by November. During the transition, day-to-day operations will also be
supported by the board and senior staff of the NEDC.
