Mr Matthew Anderson PSM has been reappointed as Director of the Australian War Memorial, continuing his work leading one of our nation's most cherished and visited cultural institutions.
The Australian War Memorial embodies the nation's commitment to remember, understand and commemorate the service and sacrifice of Australians.
Mr Anderson has served as the Memorial's Director for the past five years. His reappointment for an additional five years will provide stability and ensure the continued successful operation of the Memorial.
Mr Anderson will also continue to oversee the Memorial's major redevelopment project that's on track for completion in June 2028.
Mr Anderson spent eight years as an Australian Army Officer and then a senior diplomat with postings as Deputy High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, Ambassador to Afghanistan and High Commissioner to the Solomon Islands and Samoa.
I look forward to seeing more of his achievements in the years to come.
