AFTER 25 years under Victorian Automotive Chamber of Commerce (VACC) stewardship, Women in Automotive has tansferred to independent control led by experienced industry professionals Rachel Reed-Butler, Nadine Armstrong and Kate Peck.

With a track record of assisting and supporting womens' participation in all levels of the Australian automotive sector as well as hosting networking and motivational events and seminars, Women in Automotive is rolling out an ambitious national growth plan under its new leadership.

The Women in Automotive program reaches 10,500 people working in all aspects of the automotive industry throughout Australia from panel-beaters to dealer principals, apprentice mechanics to marketing managers and CEOs to rally champions through its various initiatives, with major growth plans starting with a national expansion of its membership base and events calendar.

Now independently run for the first time, Women in Automotive continues to have the support of the VACC as a founding partner but has an expanded scope to operate outside of Victoria.

"Without the VACC's steadfast commitment to date, Women in Automotive would not be where we are today, and we thank them for their efforts. We also thank them for entrusting us with the future of Women in Automotive," said Ms Reed-Butler.
