peter pavan“As a dedicated advocate for the project management community, I believe that PMI serves as the cornerstone for professional growth and collaboration. It's not just an association; it's a vibrant community where knowledge meets passion, and together, we elevate the standards of project management excellence.

Peter is a passionate and pragmatic self-employed contract IT Project Manager with over 35 years of extensive experience across diverse industries, including banking & finance, government, health, and the energy and utility sectors. Graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Studies, he initially began his career in software development and, over time, transitioned into the dynamic field of project management, where he has thrived for nearly two decades.

As a certified Project Manager, Peter's enthusiasm for his profession led him to volunteer with the PMI Adelaide Chapter in 2011, contributing significantly across all portfolios and dedicating four years as President. His commitment and contributions to the PMI community are underscored by noteworthy achievements, such as chairing the acclaimed PMI Australian National Conference in Adelaide in 2016.

Peter's dedication was further acknowledged when he received the prestigious PMI Australian Volunteer of the Year award in 2018. In 2019, he successfully chaired another PMI Australia National Conference held in The Gold Coast, Queensland. Notably, he initiated and chaired the annual Adelaide Connected joint association event, completing its 7th consecutive event on November 2nd. Details about this successful event can be found at www.adelaideconnected.org.

With an enduring passion for giving back to the project management and professional association community, Peter, who has served for almost 14 years, continues to demonstrate his commitment. He is well-respected within the industry and is trusted to deliver value, aiming to further enhance the benefits and services offered by the PMI Adelaide Chapter to its members and the broader project management community.
