Pretoria – Transport parastatal Transnet on Wednesday announced the members of its executive committee.<\/p>\n
“It is my belief that the reconfigured Executive Committee will contribute significantly to ensuring that the company plays a key role in making South Africa’s New Growth Path a reality, and that Transnet plays its rightful role as the custodian of South Africa’s rail, ports and pipeline infrastructure,” group chief executive Brian Molefe said.<\/p>\n
The announcement follows nearly two years of uncertainty due to the delay in the appointment of a new group chief executive and board.<\/p>\n
Last month, Public Enterprises Minister Malusi Gigaba announced that Cabinet approved Molefe’s appointment for a five-year period.<\/p>\n
“Transnet has been without a permanent group chief executive for a considerable period of time, which is undesirable given its strategic importance to the South African economy,” Gigaba said at the time.<\/p>\n
Molefe took over following December’s appointment of Transnet chairperson Mafika Mkwanazi being tasked with the group chief executive function. Mkwanazi took over from Chris Wells who resigned.<\/p>\n
With effect from 21 March 2011, the Transnet executive structure will be:<\/p>\n
Brian Molefe – Group Chief Executive
\nVirginia Dunjwa – Chief Risk Officer
\nSiyabonga Gama – Chief Executive: Transnet Freight Rail
\nMark Gregg-Macdonald – Group Executive: Planning and Monitoring
\nPradeep Maharaj – Group Executive: Human Resources and Strategy
\nCharl Moller – Chief Executive: Transnet Pipelines
\nTau Morwe – Chief Executive: Transnet National Ports Authority
\nMoira Moses – Group Executive: Transnet Capital Projects
\nKhomotso Phihlela – Group Executive: Commercial
\nAnoj Singh – Acting Chief Financial Officer
\nKarl Socikwa – Chief Executive: Transnet Port Terminals
\nZola Stephen – Group Executive: Legal, Corporate and Public Affairs
\nRichard Vallihu – Chief Executive: Transnet Rail Engineering<\/p>\n
“I expect each member of the team to finalise their key performance targets as soon as possible to allow every member of the 55 000-strong workforce to improve our operations by focusing on efficiency, productivity and safety. Above all, we have to prioritise customer service,” said Molefe. – BuaNews<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
