New ACH Group CEO excited about road ahead
South Australian aged care provider ACH Group has announced the appointment of Frank Weits as its new Chief Executive Officer.
New to the aged care sector, Mr Weits comes to ACH Group with a great record in organisational transformation and cultural change leadership, with a strong focus on customer centricity.
ACH Group Chair Mary Patetsos says Mr Weits’ experience will help ACH improve the way the organisation supports people throughout their ageing journey
“With the sector experiencing unprecedented change as a result of the deregulation of Home Care, the increased scrutiny on quality of care and quality of life, Mr Weits’ attributes as a problem solver and decision maker, his strategic vision and experience in growing businesses through innovation will enable ACH Group to identify new opportunities,” Ms Patetsos says.
“Mr Weits brings strong values-based leadership and has the ability to steer the organisation through unchartered waters.”
Mr Weits, who starts his role on January 29 next year, says he is delighted to be joining an iconic aged care organisation.
“I am looking forwarding to bringing my skills and experience to the table and working closely with the expert team that has such a tremendous record of supporting older people through quality care,” he says.
“Notably, ACH Group demonstrates a sound commitment to ensuring that the quality of care is matched by quality of life experiences, and this excites me.
“I realise that there are many challenges ahead, as we navigate through the changing climate due to government reforms and the ageing population, but ACH Group is already in an excellent position to continue delivering on its vision of good lives.”
Mr Weits has previously been instrumental in changing and leading the client centric functions at PwC Australia and in the Netherlands, his country of origin. Mr Weits is also an active community contributor via various Board roles including his role as the Honorary Consul for the Kingdom of the Netherlands in South Australia and Northern Territory.
