Great work best coast gang, with you in spirit, I know how tedious packing can be, put some tunes on, have all the lollies and LABEL THAT SHIT!

The team will transition to WFH from Friday 28 August. Bit of work to do to get that transition sorted, and then there may be a truckload and some cleaning/painting in the week after APAX before I go on leave. The actual vacancy date TBC but around Monday 21 September. We're looking at an online phone system and virtual address setup to be in place ASAP with intention to test and be satisfied with the setup of the former well before the 28th when APAX reg closure causes another spike in admin comms. Updates on any phone changes and address changes will come ASAP, we are figuring some things out as we go, acknowledging it's a tedious time to be doing all this but it is what it is. I'm handling most of the packing/storing/etc which is an away-from-desk task so am blocking time in my calendar as I go. But we already did a lot last week so fingers crossed.

Maria (bookkkeeper) resignation

by Lynda de Koning

Hi team, I am sorry to say that our lovely bookkeeper Maria has resigned and will be finishing up with us on Friday 18 September, completing that payroll and suppliers run (the one after APAX!) Maria started with PAC at the beginning of 2023 and has supported us through PAC's significant period of growth, and we are very grateful for her support during this and while activity in our financial system has undergone that same trajectory! Obviously many of you don't have direct contact with Maria, but I'll organise an e-card you can write in after APAX that we'll send to her. We are currently reviewing alternative bookkeeper / financial service options to support PAC, and I will keep the team informed of the outcomes from that. At this stage, no changes anticipated for staff in how you process invoices etc, but we will use this as an opportunity to consider how we can improve and fine tune financial processes to keep it all manageable for everyone. Onwards and upwards! Many thanks, Lynda Lynda de Koning (she/her) General Manager | PAC Australia | +61 (0) 438 860 020 | paca.org.au<https://paca.org.au/> Peramangk / South Australia GMT +9.5 [X] I gratefully acknowledge the Peramangk people, on whose lands I live and work, and recognise their continuing connection to Country. I pay my respects to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures, and to Elders past and present. Always was, always will be.

Fw: Your New LPA Member Guide

by Lynda de Koning

Hi team, FYI we are reciprocal members of Live Performance Australia (login details in lastpass), and they've just produced this Members Guide PDF - "everything you need to know to get the most out of your membership". LPA-Member-Guide.pdf<https://apacaperth.sharepoint.com/:b:/s/PACAustraliaCore/IQD5sAGiO7EJQKI_ZY…> LPA focuses on industrial relations including sector awards and contracting, OHW&S and ticketing code of practice. Of our staff team, I expect it's mainly me who uses their information with HR, but useful for you to know it exists. Contracting: If at any point you're needing to review awards for speaker contracts etc, please loop me in. HR / LAHA etc: Work with me on this. Ticketing code of conduct: management have determined our event registrations are not within their ticketing code of practice, so while we operate with the same general principles we do not need to review this as well. Claire and Membership working group - maybe something like this is useful to help embed membership within our member orgs? Let's talk more at next mtg.
