The hunt is on for the next leader of the Green Building Council South Africa (GBCSA) after CEO Brian Wilkinson announced his early retirement plans after five years at the helm.

With Wilkinson planning to step down at the end of August, GBCSA chairperson Seana Nkhahle tasked deputy chairperson Rudolf Pienaar to lead the recruitment process for a new CEO.

The council, in a statement on Monday, outlined Wilkinson’s belief that it was an “ideal time” to transition to new leadership able to provide continuity over the “next exciting phase”.

“Our purpose is to inspire property owners to design, build and operate better, greener buildings. Formal Green Star SA certifications are rapidly approaching 200 projects, up from only six certifications five years ago. I believe we are on the cusp of green buildings becoming standard, rather than limited to leading practice,” Wilkinson noted.
