years.
Ms Johnson has expressed her desire to carry on the good work of her predecessors and represent the HIA core values.
“HIA is the trusted voice of the housing industry that has represented our members and promoted the industry more broadly since we were established in 1945,” said Ms Johnson.
“Today, just as then, we are one voice, strengthened by our members who give their knowledge, experience and time generously - and we are supported by the exceptional HIA team who work in our national and regional offices.
“I am proud to be a HIA member and will always promote the Housing Industry Association at every level.
“I want Australians to have confidence in our industry, in the products and materials we use and the homes we deliver every day for thousands of families. The industry is proud of our knowledge, experience and our skills and the Association will continue to work hard to develop the next generation of building professionals,” concluded Ms Johnson.
