Gautrain Management Agency CEO William Dachs will step down in February 2024
Gauteng Transport and Logistics MEC Kedibone Diale-Tlabela says a recruitment process is under way to appoint a new Gautrain Management Agency (GMA) CEO.
Current CEO William Dachs will step down at the end of his tenure in February 2024.
Dachs was appointed CEO in February 2020. He previously served as GMA COO from 2014 and has also worked as GMA Technical Services Unit senior executive manager.
“On behalf of the Gauteng provincial government, I want to express my deepest gratitude to William for his solid and impeccable leadership. He has maintained the GMA’s standards of excellence, innovation and good governance.
“We were also fortunate to have someone of his calibre and experience to lead the GMA when the Covid-19 pandemic engulfed the entire world,” says Diale-Tlabela.
The GMA has become one of only three entities in the province to achieve the gold standard of ten consecutive clean audits.
Diale-Tlabela also notes that the process to appoint a new GMA board will start soon to ensure similar smooth and seamless handover at the board level. The current board’s term of office expires this year.
