We are still seeking a couple of Centre Managers to join our team. If you have a couple of hours per month available and would like to help us shape and support the main street industry and people, them please make contact with us.

Farewell to Kim Gibb

Kim Gibb has officially retired from her Centre Manager duties after a 25 year career where she has helped shape and guide the Victorian main street movement and centre manager industry through CBCV and now Mainstreet Australia.

Kim is a passionate, caring, loyal and knowledgeable centre manager who will be greatly missed. Kim will still be a great friend of ours and has offered to assist with the National Conference. Those who know Kim , know that she is fiercely protective of car-parking for customers so her team at Banyule Council couldn’t resist presenting her with a sign as cheeky little parting gift. Congratulations Kim on an amazing career!

Best Wishes for Christmas and the Holiday Season

On behalf of Mainstreet Australia we would like to wish everyone all the best wishes for Christmas and the holiday season. Everyone has no doubt been very busy and I trust that you will get some time to relax and enjoy time with your family and friends. We look forward to working with you in 2017. Happy New Year!
