NHVR CEO Resigns

NHVR CEO Sal Petroccitto has announced his resignation, set to leave the organisation on January 24, 2025 after more than a decade.

NHVR chair Duncan Gay paid tribute to the outgoing CEO after the announcement after he informed the board of his departure last month.

“On behalf of the NHVR Board, staff and the road transport industry, I want to share my sincere thanks to Sal for his outstanding dedication and passion in championing better outcomes for the safety and livelihood of the heavy vehicle industry and all road users,” he says.

“Sal has worked tirelessly to build industry trust and respect to ensure the modern regulatory approach being implemented by the NHVR will achieve genuine and tangible national safety and productivity reform.

“His no nonsense and practical approach in “saying it as it is” was embraced by industry and a critical part of the partnership and trust he built.

“Sal drove the successful transition of participating state-based regulatory functions to establish the NHVR.

“Under Sal’s leadership, we are now seeing consistent enforcement and education outcomes paving the way for more on-road consistency.

“This includes leaving a legacy of achieving genuine safety behavioural change and improved culture through the establishment of an inform, educate and enforce approach to compliance.

“Sal’s hard work is reflected in the overwhelmingly positive sentiments voiced by transport operators and drivers right across the country, in his interactions with his staff and in many customer champion awards achieved by the NHVR.

“On a personal level, I have enjoyed our great professional relationships and have valued working alongside Sal and I consider him a good friend.

“I know Sal will be greatly missed by the industry and his staff.”

The NHVR will conduct an ‘extensive nationwide recruitment process’ over the coming weeks to appoint Sal’s successor.
