LOCAL Shepparton resident, Charmaine Quick will be taking on the role of the new Goulburn-Murray Water (GMW) managing director from February, becoming the first female managing director to take the role.

Ms Quick comes to the role with a wealth of experience in the water industry and a strong history in leading change.
