Our Board of Directors
Cr Rhonda Coghlan
Cairns Regional Council Director representing Large Local Government Authority
I have lived in North Queensland for around 30 years.
I’ve worked mostly in financial services over that time. My roles have included Financial planning, Branch Manager, Business Banking Specialist, BDM Superannuation and Relationship Manager Superannuation.
I’ve always taken an interest in local sport. I’ve been heavily involved with Rugby League, and cycling is a passion, however I do have a very broad interest over all.
