The Hunter JO Team
The Hunter JO Team is responsible for the delivery of large-scale regional growth and development programs across the region, with the focus on ensuring the prosperity of our communities.
The Hunter JO Team facilitates and drives delivery of collaborative and evidence-based strategic outcomes across our four strategic priorities of connectivity, liveability, resilience and jobs and a growing economy, identified in the Hunter JO Strategic Plan 2032.
We undertake high level stakeholder and connection management, foster the development of regional, cross-sector and cross-jurisdiction networks and collaborate between Government departments and key program stakeholders, including research institutions, and business and community groups.
