Transurban’s leadership transitions

Two key Transurban leaders took up their new roles this week, with a third joining in a couple of weeks.

Michelle Jablko – Transurban’s new Chief Executive Officer (CEO)

Michelle Jablko has officially stepped into her role as CEO of Transurban Group.

Michelle joined Transurban in early 2021 as Chief Financial Officer (CFO). In this role, she had a broad portfolio of responsibilities and played a strategic role in major projects and transactions. Prior to joining Transurban, she was CFO at ANZ for just under five years, following almost 20 years of experience in investment banking and commercial law.

“Michelle brings a balance of strong leadership, financial acumen, experience in complex transactions, a focus on building relationships with all stakeholders and a sharp strategic mind. “I have no doubt that this combination of skills and experience will mean that she is an excellent leader for this next phase of growth for Transurban.”
