Veteran public sector leader Ivan Falzon has been named Chief Executive Officer of the Gozo Regional Development Authority (GRDA), following an appointment by the Authority’s Board of Directors.

Mr Falzon has held senior executive positions across various sectors, including healthcare and infrastructure. Most recently, he served as Chief Executive Officer of Infrastructure Malta, as well as CEO of the Water Services Corporation and Mater Dei Hospital.

Commenting on the appointment, Minister for Gozo and Planning Clint Camilleri, welcomed Mr Falzon to his new role, describing his leadership as “crucial for delivering on the GRDA’s mission” to strengthen Gozo’s regional identity and support its long-term economic development.
