Australian Public Service Commissioner

Mr Stephen Sedgwick AO, FIPAA will finish his term as Australian Public Service Commissioner on 13 December 2014.

Mr Sedgwick was appointed to the position in 2009. During that time he has overseen a number of significant changes to the Australian Public Service.

Mr Sedgwick has had a distinguished career as a senior public servant including appointments as the Secretary of the Commonwealth Departments of Finance, Employment and Education. He was a member of the Board of the Asian Development Bank for five years.

I thank Mr Sedgwick for his leadership of the Commission and his contribution to the Australian Public Service and wish him all the best for the future.

I will announce arrangements for the position of the Australian Public Service Commissioner in the near future.
