Janet Hamilton will replace Malu Barrios as general manager of the Darwin Convention Centre, a Western Australia venue managed by AEG Ogden. Earlier this year, Barrios left Darwin to serve as general manager of the Sydney Exhibition Centre at Glebe Island which will operate for three years while the International Convention Centre Sydney at Darling Harbour is under construction.
Hamilton has served the past four years as the manager of External Relations for Energy Resources of Australia (ERA), based in Darwin. Her role included the management of government relations, sponsorships and media issues for the Ranger mine. Prior to moving to Darwin, Hamilton had worked with the Sydney Olympic Organising Committee, the Sydney Harbour Foreshore Authority and Melbourne’s Docklands precinct.
