Port Hedland Chamber of Commerce and Industry general manager Tina Scott has been appointed to the executive board of the Regional Chambers of Commerce and Industry of WA, marking the first time someone from the Pilbara has sat on the board.

Ms Scott said it was a great opportunity to share PHCCI’s successes and learn from other regional chambers across WA.

“I want to highlight the importance our small-to-medium businesses bring to our communities and the importance of advocating for their needs. This is also a huge learning opportunity for me to bring other chambers’ successes back to our members,” she said.

“I will be highlighting the importance of our local businesses and ensuring they have what they need to be successful and have longevity while making sure the Pilbara has a seat at the table and is heard.”
