ANCAP has named James Goodwin as its new chief executive officer.
The appointment of the former Australian Automobile Association government relations and communications director was made by the ANCAP board this afternoon.
Goodwin also worked for the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries (FCAI) following a career in journalism.
“He brings a wealth of consumer, motoring, communications and advocacy skills to the organisation which will be invaluable in building and maintaining new and existing relationships with stakeholders,” said Wendy Machin, chair of the Australasian New Car Assessment Program.
“James has fantastic knowledge of the vehicle industry and is a strong advocate for improving consumer’s understanding of safety technology.”
Goodwin will join ANCAP in October. He is replacing Nick Clarke, who resigned from the role after 10 years.
