Warm Pacific greetings to our PDF Members, Partners and Donors, Friends and Colleagues,



The PDF Board wishes to inform that our Chief Executive Officer, Setareki Seru Macanawai, will finish his contract on 30 June 2024. The Board has formally accepted CEO Seta’s letter of resignation as notice.



The Board wishes to sincerely thank and acknowledge with gratitude the significant achievements and contribution that Seta has made since commencing in this role in 2007, as the first CEO for PDF. It is clear for all to see that PDF has grown and developed as a credible regional peak body under his sterling leadership.



We also advise that an advertisement will be posted shortly and encourage you all to share widely.



In wishing Seta all the very best for his future, the Board appreciates Seta’s involvement in working with us to find our next CEO to lead PDF onwards.
