Paul Kearney, who has served as ME’s general manager of people experience and business partnering since June 2017, will join AFCA from 5 July as its new executive general manager people and culture.
“Paul is an energetic and progressive HR executive who has a great deal of experience in leading complex organisational change programs,” AFCA COO, Justin Untersteiner, said.
“He’s passionate about improving the employee experience and has deep experience across people partnering, learning, leadership, workplace relations and talent management and acquisition.
“Paul will be an asset to AFCA as we continue to implement our vision to be a world-class ombudsman, with a world-class experience for our people.”
As well as ME Bank, Mr Kearney previously worked at Deloitte as a human capital management consultant and held HR and employee relations roles with media companies including BBC and Fairfax.
