ACC appoints Deputy Chief Executive System Commissioning and Performance
ACC has appointed Lisa Williams to the role of Deputy Chief Executive System Commissioning and Performance effective 7 April.
Lisa comes to ACC from Health NZ | Te Whatu Ora where she has led entity-wide strategic planning and performance for nearly three years.
As Deputy Chief Executive System Commissioning and Performance, Lisa will lead ACC’s work with providers to ensure ACC clients get the support they need to return to work and independence in a timely way.
“We’re delighted with Lisa’s appointment,” ACC Chief Executive Megan Main says. “I know Lisa is also excited about the opportunity to contribute to ACC’s work to ensure it is a high-performing organisation with a safe, inclusive and positive culture.”
Lisa grew her commercial capability over seven years working as a senior lawyer for GlaxoSmithKline in London, before returning to New Zealand to work at Pharmac, where she held several roles, most recently as Director of Operations. With her entire career in New Zealand and the UK being in health - both public and private sector - Lisa's commercial expertise along with her legal, government and Crown Entity experience will be invaluable to ACC.
