Town Appoints Director of Corporate Services and Town Treasurer
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
September 8, 2017
Pelham, ON – The Town of Pelham is pleased to announce that Teresa Quinlin has been named the Town’s Director of corporate services and Treasurer.
Serving in the role on an interim basis since May, Quinlin’s appointment was confirmed by bylaw during the Town’s regular council meeting on August 5, 2017. As the position is a statutory officer of the corporation, the Municipal Act states that a municipality shall appoint such a position, and the Town of Pelham appoints all statutory officers by bylaw.
"Council has been extremely impressed with Ms. Quinlin’s performance and she has really gelled as part of the leadership team,” said Mayor Dave Augustyn. “She may have served, up to this point, in an interim role, but she never once treated it as such. We look forward to Ms. Quinlin serving the Town for many years to come.”
An extensive career that includes 21 years at Niagara College and most recently, prior to joining the Town, as an independent consultant, Quinlin’s skills and knowledge in the corporate financial services sectors are considerable. Her experiences include leading and executing significant capital projects, budgeting, scenario planning, financial reporting, and risk management.
“I am really enjoying working in the Municipal sector, especially at the Town of Pelham,” said Quinlin. “There is so much happening in Pelham — a lot of growth in the community yet there is still that small town feeling. I have had the pleasure of experiencing some of the community events such as Summerfest where the whole town comes together in celebration.”
