Our AGM is chance to find out how we can continue to support salon owners and act in their best interest as a voice within the industry and help drive serious change that affects every salon owner in Australia. We ask that any members wanting to attend the AGM submit their RSVP to this virtual event by completing the short form found here. We ask that anyone wanting to attend the event please complete their RSVP by 4pm on Monday 23 November so that you can be added to the Zoom call list. Only registered members will be able to attend.

 

We also recently announced our annual HABA Members Survey and we do encourage you to fill in your responses to these questions too. We collect responses from our members each year to ensure that we are delivering what our members want and need from their industry organisation. All answers are completely anonymous so please share your thoughts honestly with us so we can improve our service to you.

 

This year, we are pleased to be welcoming new members to the Board of Directors. As a not-for-profit organisation, HABA is required to have a Board of Directors who oversee decisions made by the organisation and advise on priorities for the organisation. This gives salon owners with a wealth of experience in the hair and beauty industry the opportunity to contribute to changes and the evolution of the industry and be at the forefront of changes that will affect salon owners, apprentices and businesses as a whole. It is a position of great responsibility but one where YOU can truly make a difference to our industry.

If you are interested in being on the Board of Directors for HABA, we encourage all members to nominate themselves for a position on the board and contribute their knowledge and experience to create change within the hair and beauty industry.  If you are a financial member of HABA, you can nominate yourself or be nominated for the HABA Board of Directors, allowing you to directly advise HABA on current issues for salon owners in the hair and beauty industry. All you have to do is complete the Nomination Form here and lodge it:

• By Post: to Kelly Brignall, Returning Officer, AEC, PO BOX 496, HAYMARKET NSW 1240
• By Hand: Returning Officer, AEC, Level 10, 59 Goulburn Street, HAYMARKET NSW 2000
• By Fax: 02 6215 9910
• By Email: A properly completed nomination form including all necessary signatures and attachments may be scanned and submitted as a pdf file to nswelections@aec.gov.au

 

You must also nominate a scrutineer, someone who will observe the voting and counting of the votes, when the election is held. This ensures that all nominees are heard and dealt with equally, so it’s important you choose another trustworthy and dedicated person to act on your behalf.

If you have the time to dedicate to being a part of the Hair & Beauty Australia Board of Directors, and a real passion and desire to give back to and facilitate change in the hair and beauty industry, we really encourage you to nominate yourself to be a member of the board. We look forward to receiving your application.
