Rhiannon Grebenshikoff

Acting Chief Executive Officer

If you’ve ever called LG Professionals SA, chances are you know exactly who Rhiannon is—her high-energy attitude and positivity are infectious, and she channels all of it into her work. After over 5 years with LG Professionals SA and a background in events and marketing she is well positioned to support the team and Board to deliver on the mission of developing local government people.

Whilst managing the day to day Rhiannon is also responsible for our key events - the Annual State Conference, Management Challenge, Leadership Excellence Awards, Economic Development Conference and Rural Management Challenge—as well as Corporate Partnerships.

It’s fair to say Rhiannon loves her job—to her, the sector feels like a family, and she loves how dedicated our members are to their communities and each other. She loves hearing about all the amazing work being accomplished in the sector and is ready to help you promote them through our Awards Program.

Rivalling her professional responsibilities are Rhiannon’s skills in the old arts—fascinated by everything crafty, she’s a deft hand at crocheting and is slowly working her way through an abstract embroidery project. Her spare time is dedicated to picking up litter as part of a volunteer role at neighbouring parks, taking photos of koalas in her backyard and keeping her vast collection of indoor plants alive.

Tahlia Willey

Network and Program Officer

As our Network and Program Officer, Tahlia is responsible for supporting our six networks (including three major network conferences) our leadership development programs and the membership function of our organisation. She is here to support you with a range of opportunities to connect, learn and grow in your career.

Tahlia worked in the sector for five years prior to her role at LG Professionals SA, so she brings both experience and perspective to her work, which is great for us and even better for our members. With a passion for personal and professional development, and a love for helping people thrive, Tahlia is there to support you at any stage of your career journey—whether it be at an upcoming network forum or one of our leadership programs.

Tahlia is a certified Health Coach through the Institute of Integrative Nutrition, so it’s no surprise that she has a love of health and wellness. She loves to travel and can’t wait to get back on a plane again. When she’s not thinking about her next holiday, you’ll find her reading, brunching with friends and family or spending time with her Golden Retriever, Bonnie.
