CBH Group has opened nominations for three Member Director positions in its 2027 election: one each in Districts 1, 3 and 5. Candidates can nominate through the Candidate Assessment Panel (CAP) process or use the later nomination window without CAP participation. The deadlines are different: CAP nominations close at 12 noon on 29 October 2026; non-CAP nominations close at 12 noon on 4 January 2027.

| Route | Nomination window | CAP assessment steps |
|---|---|---|
| Participate in CAP | Thursday, 1 October 2026 to 12 noon Thursday, 29 October 2026 | Self-assessment, resume submission and interview |
| Do not participate in CAP | Thursday, 3 December 2026 to 12 noon Monday, 4 January 2027 | No CAP assessment steps are listed for this route |
Both routes are nomination paths for the same Member Director positions. The later window is for candidates who do not wish to participate in CAP; it is not a different role.
What does the Candidate Assessment Panel process involve?
CBH says CAP participation is mandatory for incumbent directors and strongly encouraged for other candidates. Candidates taking part complete a self-assessment, submit a resume and attend an interview. The panel assesses candidates against the skills and attributes sought by the CBH Board.
CBH describes CAP as a three-person, majority-independent panel made up of one CBH Member Director and two external members. The process followed a 2020 governance review. Its purpose is candidate assessment, not choosing the election winner: CBH’s 5 October 2023 Member Director election announcement stated, “It is important to note that the CAP will not recommend a preferred candidate or candidates.” CBH’s 2024 announcement also said the CAP report would be provided to members ahead of voting and that the panel would not recommend a preferred candidate (2024 election announcement; 5 October 2023 announcement).
How can prospective candidates get the pack and ask questions?
CBH lists separate contacts for discussing the role and obtaining election documents:
Rank #3

- Request the Candidate Information Pack, including CAP details, and a Nomination Form: WAEC Returning Officer Lynn Crawford-Gray, [email protected] or (08) 9214 0409.
Prospective candidates should request the current Candidate Information Pack and confirm any application-specific requirements with the Returning Officer before lodging.

The accessible 2027 election information does not establish voting dates, ballot method or detailed voter eligibility. Confirm those details in the Candidate Information Pack or with the Returning Officer rather than relying on prior election information. CBH’s 2024 announcement also stated that candidates did not need to have their main growing interests in the district where they intended to nominate, but because that condition is not restated in the current 2027 page information, candidates should verify whether it applies to this election with the Returning Officer (2024 election announcement).
