This morning the Levande board appointed Kevin McCoy to lead the retirement living business on a permanent basis, following two months as interim CEO.
Levande’s Chairman, David Gonski AC, confirmed the permanent appointment of the ex-Australian Unity CEO, Independent & Assisted Living.
“Since joining Levande, Kevin has done an outstanding job of connecting with our residents and employees, as well as championing our culture and growth aspirations across the business. He has outlined a clear and compelling vision for Levande to become Australia’s most trusted provider in retirement communities,” he said.
Kevin’s permanent appointment follows an extensive executive search process, which included reviewing the external market. Kevin was appointed Interim CEO after inaugural CEO Suzanne Dvorak left after seven months in charge.
“I’m humbled by the Board’s decision, and tremendously excited to have been confirmed as Levande’s CEO. In my short time here, I’ve visited more than half of our 58 communities, and seen first-hand the strength of our team’s commitment to our residents,” Kevin said.
Levande was created in August 2022 after global investment business EQT Infrastructure acquired Stockland Retirement Living’s 58 retirement villages across four states.
