Our Board is instrumental in shaping our impact on cities and communities. We are excited to announce new Urbis Board member Hamish McKnight, Director.

We are also pleased to announce that Non-Executive Director, Michelle Tredenick, will extend her tenure on the Urbis Board for an additional year. 

Hamish McKnight brings over 15 years’ experience in the property industry, both in the public and private sectors. Hamish’s unique expertise and fresh approach will provide a valuable perspective to the Board. His election is a testament to his leadership and strategic acumen, and we look forward to his contributions. 

I look forward to working with the Board and my peers to guide Urbis’ continued growth and success.

Hamish said, “I am honoured to be elected as a Board Member at Urbis. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to an organisation I am passionate about and one that is at the forefront of shaping the future of our cities and communities. I look forward to working with the Board and my peers to guide Urbis’ continued growth and success.” 

In addition, we are also delighted to welcome Poppy Wise, Director as our new Board Observer. Poppy is a Director in our Sydney office and is a highly experienced public policy consultant, working to drive improved outcomes for cities and the community.

Urbis is proud of the strong gender balance on our Board, including four female directors and a female Board Observer. As an employer of choice for gender equality, recognised through the Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA), we are committed to diversity and inclusion at all levels of our organisation. We believe that diverse perspectives lead to more better solutions and stronger decision-making.

Again, we would like to congratulations to Hamish, Michelle and Poppy – we wish you and the Board all the best for FY25!
