We are thrilled to announce Adele Laughton has been appointed new CEO of the Queensland Social Enterprise Council (QSEC). Adele brings a wealth of experience and a deep commitment to supporting the social enterprise sector in Queensland.

Adele’s strong background in working with government stakeholders, including federal and state industry bodies, will be invaluable in her new role by advancing advocacy for the sector and building vital partnerships at both a state and regional level.
