Mr McGowan said Tony’s extensive building experience and industry knowledge will provide great benefit for HIA members and the industry as a whole.
“As Managing Director of family building business Weststyle, Tony has more than 30 years’ experience as a registered builder and has an in-depth understanding of all facets of the residential building industry.”
“Tony has served a two-year tenure as Vice President under outgoing President Dean Humphrey and has proven expertise and respect within the industry, along with strong connections throughout our membership,” said Mr McGowan.
Mr McGowan has also welcomed newly elected Cath Evans into the role of HIA Regional Vice President.
“Principal Planner at Hatch Roberts Day, Cath has more than 30 years’ experience in the urban planning and development industry with extensive exposure at a technical, and political level.
“We are fortunate to have such experienced and knowledgeable industry professionals at the head of our association, and I look forward to working alongside Tony and Cath as we continue to advocate for WA’s residential construction sector,” said Mr McGowan.
“On behalf of everyone at HIA, I would like to congratulate Tony and Cath on becoming our new Regional President and Vice President.”
“I would also like to take the opportunity to thank outgoing President Dean Humphrey for all of his contributions and support while in the role, and his significant stewardship and representation of the housing industry through a very challenging period.
