The ARITA Board

The Board of Directors is ARITA’s governing body. It oversees the performance and activities of management and guides the Association’s strategic direction.
ARITA operates several Board Committees comprising members of the ARITA Board and ARITA Professional Members. These committees provide advice to the Board and engage with other relevant stakeholders.

The 2026 ARITA National Annual General Meeting was held at ARITA's National Office primarily via Zoom at 5pm (AEST) on Tuesday 12 May 2026.
