Kathryn McDonald

Chair, Joint Chemical Engineering Committee (JCEC) Victoria

Kathryn is an experienced engineer with diverse experience in operations, management, strategic planning, project management, budget management and coaching/development of her team. Above all, she values making a tangible difference.

Working at an ethylene plant means plenty of challenges and problems to solve. Identifying problems or opportunities and developing and implementing a plan to improve them are core skills, whether leading a team or working individually. These skills have been applied to all aspects of business operation - including safety and safety systems, production, financial reporting and stewardship, capital funding oversight, project management and commissioning.
