Andrew Lindberg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Andrew Lindberg (born Scotland circa 1954) B.Sc., B.Comm., MBA, FAICD (Fellow of the Australian Institute of Company Directors) is an Australian businessman.

From 2000 until February 2006 he held the positions of managing director and board member of AWB Limited. He resigned from these positions in the wake of his appearance at the Cole Inquiry.Despite "the trial by media" that occurred throughout the inquiry, in November 2006, he was exonerated. But this revelation came too late, as the repuation of Mr. Lindberg, AWB and many other parties involved, had already been tainted.

Prior to that he had been Chief Executive of WorkCover in Victoria and worked for the Victorian Accident Compensation Commission since 1987.

After completing his Bachelor of Science at University of Melbourne he had first worked as an industrial relations advisor in the mining and food production industries.

He migrated from Scotland to Australia with his family at age six.
